Product Description
The Voigtlander Nokton Vintage Line 35mm f/1.5 Aspherical Type II VM Lens (Black) combines classic Leica rangefinder styling with modern optical performance, offering photographers an exceptional balance of compact size, premium image quality, and elegant vintage aesthetics. Designed for Leica M-mount cameras, the Type II version features a refined black finish that complements both classic film bodies and modern digital Leica M cameras.
Its versatile 35mm focal length has long been the preferred choice of street photographers, documentary shooters, and photojournalists thanks to its natural perspective and compositional flexibility. The bright f/1.5 maximum aperture excels in low-light environments while creating beautiful background separation and smooth, artistic bokeh.
The sophisticated optical construction consists of 9 elements in 7 groups, including one double-sided aspherical element that effectively minimizes spherical aberration while maintaining exceptional sharpness and high contrast from the center to the edges of the frame. Advanced multi-layer coatings further reduce flare and ghosting, preserving vivid colors and excellent micro-contrast even in challenging lighting conditions.
The lens features Leica M rangefinder coupling down to 0.7 meters and an extended 0.5-meter close-focus capability for photographers using Live View or an electronic viewfinder on compatible Leica cameras. This dual focusing system expands creative possibilities for close-up compositions while retaining the traditional Leica rangefinder experience.
A 12-blade rounded aperture diaphragm produces exceptionally smooth bokeh with natural transitions and attractive circular highlights, making the lens equally suited for portraiture, lifestyle photography, and artistic work. Precision-machined from high-quality metal with a durable black finish, the Nokton Vintage Line 35mm f/1.5 Type II offers silky-smooth manual focusing and the outstanding craftsmanship expected from Voigtlander.
