The Nokton Classic 35mm f/1.4 II MC from Voigtlander combines a compact design with exceptional performance, making it a fast wide-angle prime lens tailored for M-mount rangefinder cameras. This second iteration of the lens showcases a symmetrical optical configuration that includes one element with abnormal partial dispersion. This design not only preserves the unique character and high color accuracy of the original model but also minimizes field curvature and astigmatism, enhancing focusing precision and ensuring consistent sharpness throughout the image plane. Additionally, the lens is equipped with a multi-coating that mitigates lens flare and ghosting, thereby improving contrast and color fidelity in challenging lighting situations. Its manual focus capability allows for close-up work at distances as short as 2.3 feet, while the 10-blade diaphragm contributes to a visually appealing bokeh, ideal for achieving a shallow depth of field.

• Version 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 has been significantly reduced for improved focusing accuracy and even sharpness across the entire image plane.
  
  
• Fast f/1.4 maximum aperture helps control depth of field for shallow depth of field shooting, and also benefits working in difficult lighting conditions.
  
  
• A symmetrical optical design, along with one abnormal partial dispersion element, is used to reduce chromatic aberrations and color fringing for improved clarity, color accuracy, and sharpness.
  
  
• This multi-coated version of the Nokton Classic 35mm f/1.4 II produces vivid yet accurate colors along with high contrast and saturation, making it well-suited for general shooting applications.
  
  
• Manual focus design enables a minimum focusing distance of 2.3'.
  
  
• A 10-blade diaphragm contributes to a smooth and pleasing bokeh quality.
  
  
• Compatible with optional LH-6 lens hood.
