Some PDMLers might have read about this new lens before, but I just discovered and thought I'd share this information, as it might be of interest some people here.
There is a new Venus 60/2.8 Ultra-Macro (up to 2:1) lens. As far as I understand it has adjustable magnification. It's made in China. Petapixel has s brief description of it:
