Voigtlander Nokton 40 mm f/1.2 lens for Nikon Z

The Voigtlander Nokton 40 mm f/1.2 is a super-bright, manual standard lens with above-average optical quality and remarkable imaging plasticity. A native Z-mount version of the lens adapted for use with modern Nikon mirrorless cameras. 40 mm The lens' focal length of 40 mm is the golden mean between wide-seeing and telephoto lenses. The slightly wider angle compared to standard 50mm will find use in filming and street and reportage photography. Its natural imaging character will capture both stunning portrait shots and breathtaking landscapes. Optical design The optical system of the Nokton 40 mm f/1.2 consists of eight lenses arranged in six groups, two of which are double-sided aspherical lenses. The use of the highest quality Japanese optical glass allows for extremely sharp and faithful images. Smooth control of light A wide range of aperture settings from f/1.2 to f/22 with 1/3 EV accuracy allows comfortable oaz precise control over depth of field. The extremely shallow depth of field using the maximum aperture allows a single element to be separated from the composition and the background to be blurred. The lens' high brightness also makes it easy to shoot in low-light conditions. The precision-made 10-blade, meanwhile, guarantees beautiful, atmospheric bokeh. Quality first Voigtlander lenses are renowned for their superior build quality. The Nokton 40 mm f/1.2 version for the Nikon Z is no different. Despite its small size, the entire barrel of the lens is made of metal, so it will maintain its accuracy for many years. The focus ring moves smoothly, but with the necessary resistance for precise operation. Nikon Z mount The lens is equipped with a Nikon Z mount and is aimed at conscious professional photographers looking for a lens with outstanding optical quality. The lens' built-in electronics provide support for an image stabilisation system and manual focus and confirmation systems.
