The Voigtlander 28mm F1.5 NOKTON Aspherical is a large aperture manual focus wide angel lens exclusively for Sony E mount cameras. The lens is optimized for full frame Sony E camera sensors and is equipped with electronic contacts enabling correction of vignetting, lateral chromatic aberration, and distortion. in addition to reflecting the lens usage status in the Exif information of the shooting data. The built in distance encoder is compatible with cameras equipped with 5 axis in body image stabilization, which uses distance information to the subject for shift stabilization. The lens also allows viewfinder magnification by operating the focus ring for accurate manual focusing.
The optical design of ten elements in eight groups provides both compact overall length and high performance despite the large aperture of F1.5. The aspherical lens provides excellent resolution wide open at F1.5. The minimum focusing distance is 0.28 m. The metal focus ring has a diamond pattern for excellent grip. It is stable even when attaching commercially available focusing gears to allow follow focus when shooting video. The high precision metal helical provides silky smooth focusing. The aperture is controlled by the lens aperture ring, not by a camera’s command dial. The aperture ring can also be set to clickless operation.
The effect of the large F1.5 aperture and slightly longer focal length makes it ideal for “large background blurring” photography, as well as for rendering out of focus areas of point light sources in a well rounded manner. The aperture iris is nearly circular with 12 aperture blades.
