Voigtlander Nokton 23mm f/1.2 Aspherical Overview

The Voigtlander 23mm f/1.2 Aspherical Lens is a compact prime with a 35mm full-frame equivalent view for FUJIFILM X-mount APS-C cameras. With its bright f/1.2 maximum aperture that suits working in a wide range of lighting conditions, this all-metal, manual focus lens delivers outstanding optical performance and precise focusing action while keeping size and weight to a minimum. To achieve this, Voigtlander makes use of two low-dispersion glass elements and one aspherical element, as well as a metal helicoid unit that has undergone specific quality control processes.

Despite its mechanical design, the lens fully supports communication with digital camera bodies and will be compatible with a number of features that rely on this interface. A rounded 12-blade diaphragm ensures the bokeh remains pleasingly circular at all apertures and is controlled by a built-in aperture ring.

  • Information communication with the body through electronic contacts
  • Precision and durable all-metal lens barrel
  • Manual focus for reliable, precise focus operation
  • Focus Check with enabled camera bodies
  • Aperture ring for direct mechanical aperture operation in 1/3-stop increments
  • Beautiful enhanced bokeh with 12 aperture blades

Voigtlander Nokton 23mm f/1.2 Aspherical Reviews

Great Street Lens!

By scott
Rated 5 out of 5

I am a big fan of Voigtlander lenses, especially for quick street shots. Lens is well made, and has a very satisfying feel. There are only two drawbacks: 1) this lens does not have weather sealing 2) this is a manual lens, so stops & focus are all by hand -- at least for Z mount though the lens does communicate with camera, and keeps track of your photo information! Overall a solid lens at a great price!

Specifically awesome

If you want a compact, manual lens that shoots great photos, this is that lens. Not as compact as the 27mm f/2. Not as sharp as the XF 23 f/1.4. Definitely fun
