A large-diameter quasi-wide-angle lens that uses the latest optical system that uses one double-sided aspherical lens and two anomalous partially dispersed glasses. Despite its compact size, it has excellent resolution from the widest aperture, and the large aperture of F1.2 provides a large amount of blur.

First Look Voigtlander NOKTON 23mm F1.2 Aspherical


The first images of the Voigtlander NOKTON 23mm f/1.2 Aspherical have come out and it looks like any other solid mechanical lens, but one interesting point is several Nikon Z mount lenses were also announced and the 23mm lens for Z mount has a significantly different design than the lens for X mount which includes a manual aperture ring on the top. Voigtlander is designing its X-mount lenses to be “ranger finder styled”. This lens was originally supposed to be announced at CP + 2022. Voightlander lenses are available from B&H Photo.

Sigma expects the Sigma 16mm, 30mm, 56mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary Lenses announced earlier today to be available in April and they have a tentative timeline for the release of the Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 DC DN Contemporary of December 2022. Since Sigma has already done most of the heavy lifting when they designed these lenses for E-mount the delays are most likely due to supply chain issues and that is why the Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 DC DN Contemporary release date is only tentative.
