Lenstips reviewed the new Voigtlander Nokton 50mm f1.2 ASPH and as usually Voigtlander’s build quality is great, but the image is a little soft at f/1.2 and f/1.4 which limits the lenses ability to resolve. You can read the full review here or see the pros/cons below:
Pros:
- solid, moderately big casing made of metal,
- record-breaking resolution values in frame centre on stopping down,
- sensible image quality on the edge of the APS-C sensor,
- slight longitudinal chromatic aberration,
- negligible lateral chromatic aberration,
- excellent distortion correction.
Cons:
- weak image quality in the frame centre by f/1.2 and f/1.4,
- resolution on the edge of full frame sensor leaves a lot to be desired,
- huge vignetting on full frame,
- noticeable coma.
