Sirui has officially opened pre-orders on its global store for two fast full-frame autofocus prime lenses in its Aurora series: the Aurora 15mm f/1.6 and Aurora 24mm f/1.4. The lenses are offered in both Sony E and Leica L mounts, with retail pricing set at $599 for the 15mm f/1.6 and $499 for the 24mm f/1.4.
Both lenses target landscape, architectural, and astrophotography shooters seeking fast apertures without the substantial bulk or cost of first-party OEM glass. An autofocus 15mm prime opening to f/1.6 at $599 is a notably aggressive release in the mirrorless market, where ultra-wide lenses faster than f/2 typically command well over $800. For night sky shooters on L-mount and E-mount bodies, coma aberration control in the extreme corners wide open will be the critical benchmark to verify once review copies hit the field.
