The semi wide-angle standard lens gets an upgrade!
Announcing the Nokton Classic 35mm F1.4 II VM mount interchangeable lens for rangefinder cameras.
With its compact size and large maximum aperture realized by combining a traditional symmetrical lens
configuration with the latest optical materials, the NOKTON
classic 35mm F1.4 VM is the ideal semi wide-angle lens for
rangefinder cameras, and the lens has received wide acclaim
over the more than 10 years since its release in 2008.
While retaining the soft and beautiful “bokeh” at full aperture and
sharp rendering when stopped down of its predecessor, the
NOKTON classic 35mm F1.4 II VM is updated for enhanced user
friendliness on digital cameras. The optical formula of this lens
received a “tune up” with the aim of improving focus accuracy
when using live view to focus. The spherical aberrations that
influenced image rendering on its predecessor are retained as is, intentionally so. However with this
upgraded version, with respect to the phenomenon caused by spherical aberrations where the focus
position shifts when stopping the aperture down to capture an image after focusing with live view at
maximum aperture, this shift in the image plane caused by changing the aperture is now almost entirely
eliminated. Furthermore, for focusing at the center of the image using live view and then recomposing to
place the subject toward the periphery, stable
