Voigtlander Nokton D 35mm f1.2 APS-C Lens - Nikon Z Mount

The NOKTON D35mm F1.2 is a large-diameter manual focus standard lens that covers an APS-C size image circle, and its optical design is optimized for the image sensor of Nikon Z cameras. This lens is equipped with electronic contacts and realizes telecommunications between the lens and the body. In addition to Exif information and in-body image stabilization (3 axes), by combining a body compatible with telecommunications and the latest firmware (* 1), three types of focusing support functions (focusing by color changing of the focus point frame, peaking function focusing and focusing with the enlargement button) are supported.

The lens configuration uses a traditional double gauss type. A large aperture of F1.2 is realized in the style of “8-element” in which all elements arranged almost symmetrically around the aperture position are composed of spherical surfaces. It has a stable descriptive power even at wide open, and you can enjoy a smooth and large bokeh effect. The aperture blades are made up of 12 blades that take into consideration the shape of the blur, with a 1/3 step click. The focus ring and aperture ring are all metal and feature a heavily carved finger grip and a precision-cut knurled pattern. This design combines a beautiful appearance reminiscent of the good old days with functionality that improves the feeling of manual operation, and is a replacement for the Voigtländer SL series, which pays homage to the interchangeable lenses for single-lens reflex cameras in the 1965s and 1974s. It conforms to the styling of the lens, and you can enjoy the silky focusing operation feeling with the all-metal helicoid ring.

The shortest shooting distance is 0.3m (shooting magnification 1: 6.7). In addition to being able to capture a wide variety of subjects as a standard lens with angle of view of 44 °, the close-up shooting effect provides a large amount of bokeh, expanding the possibilities of shooting that takes advantage of the bokeh at full aperture. In addition, despite its large diameter, it has a filter diameter of φ46 mm, a total length of 41.0 mm, and a weight of 230 g, making it compact and easy to handle. Comes with a traditional style metal screw-in hood.
