Show China-based manufacturer Yongnuo has produced what looks like a near-clone of Canon's well-liked EF 35mm f/2, a lens that dates back to 1990. With a couple of exceptions (one of which being the brand name on the front of the lens) the Yongnuo lens certainly looks very similar to Canon's 25-year-old prime. The Yongnuo 35mm f/2 covers a 56mm equivalent focal length on an APS-C body and comprises 7 elements in 5 groups, just like the original. But rather than the Canon's 5-blade aperture, Yongnuo offers 7 blades. Another key difference - whereas Canon's lens still costs around $250 used; we understand that the new Yongnuo 35mm F2 is likely to cost around $115. Keep an eye on Yongnuo's official eBay and Amazon stores for more information. Yongnuo 35mm f/2 key specifications:

The Sony a7C II refreshes the compact full-frame with a 33MP sensor, the addition of a front control dial, a dedicated 'AI' processor, 10-bit 4K/60p video and more. It's a definite improvement, but it helps if you value its compact form.
