Voigtlander 35 mm F2.0 APO Lanthar Aspherical

Voigtlander's commitment to lens craftsmanship finds its pinnacle in the 35 mm F2.0 APO Lanthar Aspherical VM lens. Designed to deliver a supremely extraordinary imaging performance, this lens emerges as arguably the most potent 35mm offering from Voigtlander to date.

Engineering Behind the Excellence

The lens boasts an intricate optical arrangement composed of 11 lens elements spread across 9 groups. Integral to its design are two double-sided aspherical elements and five with abnormal partial dispersion. This is supplemented by floating elements engineered for optimal focusing performance. The lens’s apochromatic color correction, combined with a superior multi-coating, perfects its technically sophisticated design.

Bokeh Brilliance

One of the standout features is the lens’s capacity to produce a circular and balanced bokeh. This is achieved thanks to the 12 aperture blades that form a round opening at multiple aperture values, including F2.0, F2.8, F5.6, and F16. Such precision ensures that point light sources manifest as beautiful circular bokeh in images.

Unparalleled Versatility

While optimized for Leica M cameras, the lens doesn’t confine its prowess there. Photographers can also employ it with Fuji X cameras and Nikon Z models. To facilitate this, Voigtlander offers the perfect Nah + system adapters. Such versatility underscores its position as a formidable tool in the wide-angle focal length domain.

Design & Aesthetic Appeal

With its unique panel construction, the lens empowers photographers with a high degree of creative freedom, promising a distinct look for each shot. It boasts a sleek black finish, and for those looking to further enhance its aesthetic appeal, an optional lens hood (LH-13) is available for the VM version, while the E-mount iteration comes with a standard lens hood.
