High-Quality Optics. The Voigtlander 58mm f/1.4 Nokton SL II S for Nikon boasts a double-gauss optical design that produces sharp images while reducing chromatic and spherical aberrations.
Versatility. This lens’s combination of focal length and bright maximum aperture gives you extensive focus-placement control, making it great for selective-focus and shallow depth-of-field work. It’s excellent for portraiture and low-light photography.
Superlative Sharpness. The Nokton provides superb center resolution, even wide open, while its edge and corner resolution are excellent by f/2.0. At f/5.6, it’s one of the few lenses sharp enough to exceed most reviewers’ ability to measure. Basically, this lens provides the image quality of far more expensive Zeiss or Nikon primes.
Manual Focus. This lens’s manual-focus design gives you precise control, but the camera handles metering in a fashion similar to the Zeiss ZF lenses. The 58mm f/1.4 has a 1:5:8 maximum magnification ratio and a 1.5-ft. minimum focusing distance.
High-Quality Build. The lens’s durable all-metal barrel includes depth-of-field and focus-distance scales.
