Voigtlander is known for producing lenses with solid build quality and superb image quality, and the MACRO APO-LANTHAR 65mm f/2 Aspherical lens is no different. This superb imaging review looks at this exciting lens and the kind of image quality and performance you can expect from it in practice.
Coming to you from Christopher FrostThis great video review will look at Voigtlander MACRO APO-LANTHAR 65mm f/2 . aspherical lens. Voigtlander is known for its well-constructed manual focus lenses with plenty of sharpness and contrast, and the 65mm f/2 lens seems to be no exception. It comes with a bunch of great features, including:
- 1:2 macro magnification with 12.2-inch minimum focusing distance
- 10-blade diaphragm for smoother bokeh
- Electronic contacts to transmit data to the camera and take advantage of in-body image stabilization
- Tone design to reduce vertical chromatic aberration
- One aspherical element to reduce spherical aberrations and increase sharpness
- Manual aperture ring
I’ve had 10mm f/5.6 for several years, and I’ve always loved the picture quality I got from it, plus its all-metal construction and thoughtful design have made it a real joy to use. Check out the video above for Frost’s full thoughts on the lens.
