Upcoming: Laowa 15mm f/5 Cookie FF II L-mount lens listed in Australia

The Australian store Georges already listed the upcoming Laowa 15mm f/5 Cookie FF II lens. The price is 728 ASUD which is about 470 USD. The lens comprises 13 elements arranged in 9 groups, featuring 4 extra-low dispersion (ED) glasses and 2 aspherical glasses.

On the stores page you can find some image samples shot with this lens. I guess this means the lens will be announced within days!
