Voigtlander NOKTON 28mm Aspherical Sony E Full Size Single Focus Large Aperture Wide Angle Lens Manual Focus Sony SONY E Mount Interchangeable Lens

A large-diameter manual focus wide-angle lens exclusively for Sony E-mount. It covers a full-size image circle, and the optical design is optimized for the image sensor of Sony mirrorless cameras. This lens is equipped with electronic contacts, and in addition to reflecting the usage status of the lens in the Exif information of the shooting data, it also allows electronic correction of peripheral illumination, lateral chromatic aberration, and distortion by turning ON/OFF settings on the body side. It is possible. Additionally, since it has a built-in distance encoder, it is compatible with models equipped with a 5-axis in-body image stabilization function that uses distance information to the subject for shift blur correction. It is also possible to enlarge the viewfinder by operating the focus ring, allowing comfortable manual focusing. The lens construction is 10 elements in 8 groups, and the use of aspherical lenses provides excellent descriptive power even at maximum aperture. Although it has a large aperture of F1.5, it is both compact with a total length of 55mm and high performance. With its easy-to-handle size and large diameter, it can also be used as a "night snap shooter." The shortest shooting distance of this lens is 0.28m, and focusing is manual focus only. The metal focus ring uses a diamond pattern with excellent grip. It provides a sense of stability even when attached to a commercially available video focus gear, and one of its features is a silky, greased operating feel thanks to the high-precision metal helicoid that can withstand even severe focusing when the aperture is wide open. The aperture is mechanically controlled and is directly connected to the control ring, and is adjusted on the lens side rather than the command dial on the camera side. The aperture ring has a click switching mechanism that allows you to open and close the aperture steplessly without being affected by clicks, such as when shooting videos or making fine depth of focus adjustments. The large aperture of F1.5 and short minimum shooting distance make it possible to create photographs that blur the background, especially in close-up areas, and the 12-element aperture is nearly circular, making it possible to outfocus point light sources. The parts are also depicted in an orderly manner. This lens comes with a special screw-in metal lens hood.
