Voigtlander 40mm f1.2 Nokton Aspherical Lens for Canon RF Mount Cameras

The Voigtlander NOKTON 40mm F1.2 Aspherical is a large aperture manual focus lens exclusively for Canon RF mount cameras. Covering a full-frame image circle, the lens is optimized for the image sensor of the Canon R system.

The lens is equipped with electronic contacts and has data communications with Canon R cameras. In addition to Exif information and in-body image stabilization (3-axis) *1, three types of focus support functions (magnification, peaking, and focus guide *2) are supported.

*1 Effective only with bodies equipped with in-camera image stabilization feature.
*2 Excluding EOS RP.

The lens construction consists of eight elements in six groups, two of which are double-sided aspherical. Despite its compact size, the lens achieves an astonishingly large F1.2 aperture for a full-frame 40mm lens. The lens offers reliable optical performance at all apertures and a smooth pleasing bokeh effect wide open. The angle of view of the 40mm focal length is equivalent to 60mm on an APS-C size camera, meaning that the lens is very versatile for both full-frame and APS-C size cameras.

The minimum focusing distance of this lens is an amazing 0.3m. The silky-smooth focus of a high-precision metal helicoid is aided by an engraved diamond pattern
which provides a secure grip for the user and extremely accurate focus.

A metal aperture ring has a de-click mechanism that allows the aperture to be used without click-stops when shooting video. The aperture has 10 diaphragm blades, which allow the photographer to capture smooth out-of-focus areas at the same time as sharp in-focus areas. A thread-mounted metal hood is included.
