TheNOKTON 40mm f/1.2 Aspherical LensbyVoigtlanderis a large aperture f/1.2 lens for full-frame RF Mount cameras. NOKTON is the title given to fast lenses with an open f value of f/1.5 or less among Voigtlander lenses. The merit of fast lenses in modern times, where the sensitivity of image sensors has increased, is that the large bokeh at open aperture can be used as a photographic expression. The NOKTON 40mm f/1.2 Aspherical is a large aperture manual focus lens. Covering a full-frame image circle, the optical design is optimized for the image sensor of the Canon RFsystem cameras. The lens construction consists of eight elements in six groups, two of which are double-sided aspherical lenses. Despite its compact size, this lens achieves an astonishingly large f/1.2 aperture.
