LT: Voigtlander Nokton 35 mm f/0.9 ASPH Review – Probably Only For Voigtlander Fans

• 3 months ago

Lenstips published its full review of the Voigtlander Nokton 35 mm f/0.9 and sadly the lens disappoints with the Laowa Argus 33mm f/0.95 being mentioned as a better lens at a better price point. You can read the full review here or check out the excerpts below:

Pros:

• very solid, metal barrel,
• excellent image quality in the frame centre starting from f/1.2,
• imperceptible longitudinal chromatic aberration,
• slight lateral chromatic aberration,
• lack of any serious problems with distortion.

Cons:

• weak image quality on the edge of the frame near the maximum relative aperture,
• weak correction of spherical aberration,
• very high coma,
• noticeable astigmatism,
• distinct vignetting,
• significant focus breathing,
• unfavourable price/performance ratio.
