Brightin Star (Xingyao Optics) is a Chinese manufacturer specialized in manual focus lenses for mirrorless cameras, which stands out for offering a robust metal construction and very bright apertures at extremely competitive prices. Its catalog focuses on "character" lenses and retro aesthetics, including from ultra-compact pancake models to specialized 2:1 macro lenses and extreme aperture optics such as its f/0.95 series, designed to maximize defocus and performance in low light conditions.

Although they lack autofocus and electronic contacts, these lenses are highly valued by enthusiastic photographers looking for a tactile and mechanical experience without making large investments. They are compatible with almost all current mounts (Sony E, Fujifilm X, Nikon Z, etc.) and are positioned as a creative alternative for those who prioritize compact design and artistic experimentation over the clinical optical perfection of traditional brands.
