The NOKTON Vintage Line 35mm F1.5 Aspherical is a regular use lens for rangefinder cameras with a large aperture. Still, the filter diameter is kept to φ39mm and the overall length of the product is short at 36mm, giving it a tight, compact portability.

The lens barrel, with a modern classic design, is equipped with a 6-group, 9-element optical system featuring two double-sided aspheric lenses, which provide excellent optical performance at all apertures.

The minimum focusing distance is 0.5m, shorter than the 0.7m linked to the rangefinder (depending on the camera to which it is attached).

Two styles are available: First, there is Type I, made of aluminum and weighing 188g having both light weight and maximum portability. Also offered is Type II, made of brass and weighing 284g for a sturdy and substantial feeling, with a finish choice of either black or silver.

The optional hoods LH-4N with slits and LH-12 classic style are both compatible.

You may ask why this lens has been announced - when Voigtlander already have a 50mm f1.1. The 50mm f1.2 is a brand new lens design, with a similar specification to the exceedingly popular 40mm f1.2 VM lens.

This lens features two aspherical elements & a 12 aperture blade diaphragm - allowing exceptional performance from F22 all the way to wide open.

The 50mm f1.2 is designed for use with both digital and film photography and is equipped with a rangefinder coupling cam. The minimum close focus distance of this lens is 70cm.

Both the LH-8 and LH-10 lens hoods can be used with this lens. The LH-10 is a brand new lens hood designed for this lens, though you can also use the more compact LH-8.

Main Features:
Enhanced high performance aspherical lens surfaces
Extremely solid and durable all-metal barrel
Manual focus
12 aperture blades
VM Bayonet Mount
Focus coupling system
Minimum focus distance: 70

With two aspherical surfaces, the new 50mm f1.5 II from Voigtlander could be one of their best 50mm lenses yet! An apparent vast improvement over the original 50mm f1.5 Nokton would take it into Leica territory, in terms of quality. Again, the new 50mm f1.5 II is all-metal construction lens, but with a smooth focusing ring (the 50mm f1.5 has a knurled ring). An interesting difference is that the new version is available in six different variations! A choice of Single or Multi-coated and three colour schemes (Black, Silver and Black Nickel)

The HELIAR classic 50mm F1.5 VM is finished to show classical depiction at the wide open apertures by the aberrations that intentionally remained. The Heliar Classic is measured by a different yard stick. Heliar images are about classic style.

This image effect is painterly or even "more fluffy" than images made by modern lenses. By leaving some factors of aberration, both coma and spherical, we create a different image flavor than contemporary images made in digital post-processing. Not every subject demands maximum sharpness and saturation, some require a more delicate touch. Our optical formula is like a hand reaching back in time.

This look cannot be obtained with modern lenses that over correct for various aberrations. In addition to the superior bokeh the remaining frame flare and single coated finish provide an extremely unique palette at wide open aperture settings.
