Voigtlander Nokton 35mm f/1.2 Aspherical II Lens

Description

Distinguished by its extremely fast maximum aperture, the Nokton 35mm f/1.2 Aspherical II from Voigtlander is a versatile wide-angle prime for M-mount rangefinder cameras. The bright f/1.2 aperture benefits working with selective focus techniques, and also aids when shooting in low-light environments. The optical design employs high refractive index glass and a pair of aspherical elements to reduce spherical aberrations and distortions for improved clarity and sharpness throughout the aperture range. A 12-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality, and the lens's manual focus operation permits working with subjects as close as 50 cm away.
