The lens doesn't seem to offer floating elements as its CYMM predecessor did. At least I couldn't spot a mention. I am wondering whether Cosina lacks the technology for this.
I noticed similar with the Cosina produced Zeiss lenses for Hasselblad. While the original ones had floating elements the Cosina produced ones do not seem to offer this any more. Anyone here knows?
