Voigtländer Nokton 40mm f/1.2 Aspherical Black Nikon Z Mount

Voigtländer Nokton 40mm f/1.2 Aspherical Black – Fast Standard Prime for Full-Frame

The Voigtländer Nokton 40mm f/1.2 is a fixed-focal-length prime lens in the classic Nokton line, designed for the Nikon Z mount. With a maximum aperture of f/1.2 and an aspherical element, it delivers shallow depth of field and sharp rendering across the frame.

• f/1.2 maximum aperture creates strong background separation and works well in low-light conditions
• 58 mm filter thread accepts standard ND and polarising filters for exposure control
• Fully manual focus with a smooth, precise focus ring for video and stills
• Compact and lightweight at 585 g, making it suitable for handheld shooting throughout the day

Das zeichnet das Nokton 40mm f/1.2 aus

The Nokton series is known for its classic optical design and characterful rendering. The aspherical element in this 40mm prime reduces spherical aberration while preserving a natural, three-dimensional look. The f/1.2 aperture is not just a spec — it is a creative tool that shapes the image from the moment you mount the lens.

Ideal für...

Street photographers and documentary shooters who value a compact, discreet full-frame prime with a fast aperture. Also suited for video creators who need smooth manual focus and a shallow depth-of-field look without the bulk of a zoom lens.

Anwendung von Voigtländer Nokton 40mm f/1.2

Mount the lens on a Nikon Z-series body and use the full aperture range from f/1.2 to f/22. At f/1.2, focus carefully on the subject — the shallow depth of field isolates the foreground from the background. Stop down to f/5.6–f/8 for sharper landscapes or group shots. Use the 58 mm filter thread to attach an ND filter for long exposures in daylight or a polariser to reduce reflections.
