Description


Voigtlander Z  65MM F2 MACRO APO Lanthar
for all Nikon Z cameras

The MACRO APO-LANTHAR 65mm F2 Aspherical Z Mount is a large-aperture macro lens compatible with full-frame (Nikon FX format) mirrorless cameras with the Nikon Z mount. The apochromatic design minimizes axial chromatic aberration of the three primary colors (RGB) of light to practically zero, resulting in sharp image formation performance from the maximum aperture, and rendering extremely excellent image quality from the minimum focusing distance to infinity.

Apochromatic design

This design thoroughly eliminates various aberrations including axial chromatic aberrations and pursues the ultimate performance in terms of resolution and contrast reproducibility.

Floating mechanism employed

The lens employs a floating mechanism that independently moves a lens group according to the focus distance to ensure reliable imaging quality for subjects at the minimum focus distance of 31cm (reproduction ratio of 1:2) through to infinity.

Beautiful bokeh effect with 10 aperture blades

A 10-element aperture is used to make the opening formed by the diaphragm blades closer to a circular shape. Out-of-focus areas are rendered naturally, and point light sources are rendered with a soft, rounded bokeh effect.

Designed exclusively for the Nikon Z mount

Optics optimized for the image sensors of mirrorless cameras with the Nikon Z-mount are implemented. The lens has a full-frame image circle and can be used with both full-frame (Nikon FX format) and APS-C size (Nikon DX format) mirrorless cameras.

Manual focus for reliable focusing

Employs a very precisely machined and adjusted all metal helicoid unit lubricated with high quality grease to realize smooth focusing operation with just the right amount of torque. This enables very precise focusing.

Voiglander quality!!
I was hesitating in getting a MF lens before until now.
This is my first Voiglander lens and it led to another three purchases within one month. I used to draw a conclusion that I'm too old to use MF lens until this lens mount on my Zf.
What an amazing combination of Zf and 65/2, it UNVEILs the hazy/foggy view that I always get from the adapted Contax lens or the F mount Zeiss lens. The clean view makes manual focusing super easy. Z mount Voiglander lens with the focusing square for in focus confirmation is a breeze to use, fast and clear, no hesitation, no frustration. Color, contrast, bokeh are all top notch.
If you ever have a doubt about your old vision, you owe it to yourself not trying this lens on a new Z body. It makes you "young" again especially looking through Zf/Z8 EVF!
Magnification is not the greatest as a macro lens but I don't treat it as a macro-it's a bonus for short distance shooting. Use it as a portrait if the model's skin is good, use it as a landscape, it makes all subjects pops! I'm waiting for Voiglander to come up with a 26/28mm.
