Voigtlander Nokton 23 mm f/1.2 lens for Fujifilm X

The Nokton 23 mm f/1.2 is a super-bright manual lens by Voigtlander designed to work with the high-resolution APS-C sensors of Fujifilm X cameras. A lens that combines analogue character with the latest optical engineering to guarantee unique, detailed imaging. An equivalent of 35mm on full frame The 23mm focal length offered by the Nokton is equivalent to the classic 35mm for full-frame cameras. The lens gives a 63.2° field of view - a tad wider than the standard 50mm (on full frame). The Nokton 23mm will find use in film and street, reportage or product photography, allowing you to capture both stunning portraits and breathtaking landscapes. classic-design The Nokton 23mm features an advanced optical system consisting of ten elements arranged in six groups. The system includes two lenses made of anomalous dispersion glass and one double-sided aspherical lens. This design has made it possible to achieve high image quality while maintaining a distinctive analogue character. Precise light control The aperture of the Nokton 23 mm offers an adjustable range of f/1.2 - f/16, providing just the right amount of freedom when working with depth of field for most everyday applications. The aperture value can be adjusted in 1/3 EV increments. The 12 aperture control blades allow for beautifully creamy blurs in out-of-focus areas. Quality without compromise Voigtlander lenses are renowned for their superior build quality. The Nokton 23 mm is no different. The lens surprises with its compact size and simple, compact design. The entire barrel is made of metal, so the lens will maintain its accuracy for many years. The setting rings move smoothly, but with the necessary resistance for precise operation. Fujifilm X mount The lens features the Fujifilm X mount and is aimed at conscious photographers looking for a manual lens with high optical quality and high brightness. The lens' built-in electronics provide support for image stabilisation and a focus setting and confirmation system. It also allows EXIF data of images taken to be transferred to the body. Before working with the lens, we suggest changing the aperture display settings on the camera body from TNo to FNo and changing the depth of field scale display to the film standard.
