Voigtländer Nokton 50mm f1.0 Canon RF

Cosina introduces Voigtländer Nokton 50mm f1.0 Canon RF. The Nokton 50mm f/1 is constructed of nine elements arranged in seven groups and has an aperture range of f/1 through f/16 via a 12-bladed aperture diaphragm. Cosina says that this lense is equipped with an optical system that has been optimized for Canon mirrorless cameras. It works on both APS-C and full-frame systems, too. It is designed to work in tandem with Canon’s in-body image stabilization to provide 3-axes of compensation. The lens itself has no stabilization in it. Cosina claims that thanks to its in-house ground aspherical glass, it was able to simplify the lens configuration while continuing to ensure high performance and, despite its large aperture of f/1, it performs at a high level. It has a minimum focusing distance of 0.45 meters. The lens is simple from a features perspective: it features a manual focusing system and a manual aperture ring, the latter of which can be de-clicked for use in video recording.
