This updated, version II of the lens features an asymmetrical optical design with one abnormal partial dispersion element, which retains the distinct character and high colour accuracy rendering of the original, but also reduces curvature of field and astigmatism for improved focusing accuracy and more even sharpness across the entire image plane. This lens also features a single coating, as opposed to a more common multi-layered coating, which offers a subtler image quality with slightly reduced contrast that is especially well-suited to black and white photography. Its manual focus design permits working with subjects as close as 2.3' away and a 10-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality to suit working with shallow depth of field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVersion II of this lens features a refined optical design that is better suited for use with digital cameras, especially in conjunction with focusing using live view. The optical integrity has been maintained, keeping the characteristic spherical aberrations for a classic look, however, the field curvature and astigmatism have been significantly reduced for improved focusing accuracy and even sharpness across the entire image plane.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFast f\/1.4 maximum aperture helps control depth of field for shallow depth of field shooting, and also benefits working in difficult lighting conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAsymmetrical optical design, along with one abnormal partial dispersion element, is used to reduce chromatic aberrations and colour fringing for improved clarity, colour accuracy, and sharpness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe single-layer coating helps to reduce flare and ghosting for improved contrast and colour neutrality, however, this coating is intentionally less effective than common multi-layered coatings in order to produce a dreamy, less contrast-rich image quality well-suited to black and white imagery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eManual focus design enables a minimum focusing distance of 2.3'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 10-blade diaphragm contributes to a smooth and pleasing bokeh quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatible with optional LH-6 lens hood.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Voigtlander","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42720770982055,"sku":"GC75-BA347B","price":1095.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/4083\/0375\/products\/ba347b_1.jpg?v=1666612747","url":"https:\/\/www.georges.com.au\/products\/voigtlander-nokton-classic-35mm-f-1-4-ii-sc-leica-m-mount","provider":"Georges Cameras","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
