The Voigtlander Z 50mm APO-Lanthar uses the same optical formula as the popular Sony E-mount lens, which was introduced as the highest-performance standard lens in Voigtländer’s history.  The Z optics are optimized for the Z image sensors of the Z mirrorless Nikon cameras.


The APO-Lanthar's apochromatic design minimizes axial chromatic aberration of the three primary colors of light, RGB, to zero, and the performance of the lens will revolutionize the value of standard lenses. The lens also offers high mobility and easy handling in a compact style.

Voigtlander Z lenses are equipped with electronic contacts to communicative between the lens and camera body to provide  Exif information and and in-body image stabilization (3 axis) *1.  Lens focusing  support includes  [1] focusing by color changing of the focus point frame [2] peaking function focusing and [3] focusing with the enlargement button).   *1  Keep your camera firmware updated in order to maintain maximum features possible with your camera body.

The lens focusing helical and aperture  control rings are all metal featuring  heavily carved finger grips in a precision-cut knurled pattern.  The  lens barrel combines a nostalgic appearance with functionality that improves the feeling of manual operation.

*Voigtlander Z lenses are developed and manufactured under license agreement with Nikon Corporation.

Main Features

The Z APO-Lanthar delivers outstanding optical  performance.
Floating elements are used with the 10 element in 8 groups optical design. Two Aspherical elements have aspherical surfaces on both sides.    2 elements are made using anomalous partial dispersion glass.

Designed exclusively for the Nikon Z mount

Its optical design is optimized for the full frame (Nikon FX-format) camera sensor for improved optical performance.  It may be used on DX Z cameras.

Information communication with the body by electronic contacts

Voigtlander Z lenses are equipped with electronic contacts to communicative between the lens and camera body to provide  Exif information and and in-body image stabilization (3 axis) *1.  Lens focusing  support includes  [1] focusing by color changing of the focus point frame [2] peaking function focusing and [3] focusing with the enlargement button).   *1  Keep your camera firmware updated in order to maintain maximum features possible with your camera body.

Manual focus for reliable focus operation

By adopting a full-metal focusing helical adjusted with high precision high-quality grease to provide appropriate torque, very smooth manufal focusing operation is attained along with precision fine focus adjustment.

Beautiful bokeh with 12 aperture blades

A 12-blade aperture produces an aperture blade pattern closer to a circle for beautiful bokeh.  Out-of-focus bokeh looks more natural depiction.  Point light sources are round with soft bokeh instead of a a polygon.
