ニコンZfがもっと楽しくなる！触れてわかる、アポランターの本質｜Voigtländer APO-LANTHAR 28mm F2 Z を使ってみた【作例100点超】

Using the APO-LANTHAR 28mm f/2 with the Nikon Zf: Why "Fun" Overcomes High Performance This video introduces the Voigtländer APO-LANTHAR 28mm f/2 for the Nikon Z mount, which we borrowed from Cosina before its release. This lens was developed specifically for the Nikon Z mount and is compatible with both full-frame (FX) and APS-C (DX) formats. Its apochromatic design thoroughly suppresses various aberrations, including axial chromatic aberration, delivering exceptionally high image quality in terms of both resolution and contrast. The 12-element, 8-group lens construction includes six anomalous partial dispersion glass elements and two double-sided aspherical lenses. It also features a floating mechanism, ensuring stable image quality from close distances to infinity. A lens that's even more enjoyable with the Nikon Zf I felt that the APO-LANTHAR 28mm f/2 was a lens that reached a new level of perfection when used with the Zf. The classic Zf body design, machined metal lens barrel, fine knurling, and satisfying click feel. Not only does it look good, but the entire process of holding the lens, holding it, and turning the focus ring is a perfect match for the Zf's design philosophy. Furthermore, the Zf offers features such as Peaking Magnification Focus point frame color change In-body image stabilization that make manual focusing an enjoyable task rather than an inconvenience. Instead of leaving it to the AF, you can focus with your own fingers, enjoying the moment until the shutter is released. I'm sure many people feel that this feeling is the very reason they chose the Zf. And what I like most about this lens is the focusing feel, due to the high-precision, all-metal helicoid unit and the high-quality grease that generates just the right amount of torque. It's precisely because the imaging performance is so high that you get that distinct feeling when the focus is achieved, and when that sensation coincides with the Zf's shutter feel, the act of taking a photo itself becomes incredibly intense. In this video, I mainly share my honest impressions after actually attaching the lens to the Zf and using it and using it in my daily life. The second half of the video features over 100 example photos in slideshow format. While these are scenes from my daily life, the content will also be useful for Zf users, including resistance to backlighting when the sun enters the frame imaging at near the minimum focusing distance and the texture of the bokeh. I hope that you can feel not only the image quality, but also the joy of using a manual focus lens with the Zf from the video. ⸻ Key Specifications (Voigtländer APO-LANTHAR 28mm f/2 Z) ・Focal Length: 28mm ・Aperture Ratio: 1:2 ・Minimum Aperture: f/16 ・Lens Construction: 12 elements in 8 groups ・Angle of View: 74.0° ・Aperture Blades: 12 ・Minimum Focus Distance: 0.28m ・Maximum Magnification Ratio: 1:6.9 ・Maximum Diameter x Total Length: φ68.8 x 60.0mm ・Filter Size: φ58mm ・Weight: 350g ・Lens Hood: Reversible bayonet hood included ・Aperture Ring: Yes (Manual Aperture) ・Electronic Contacts: Yes ・EXIF Data: Supported ・Focus Assist Functions: Focus Point Frame Color Change Peaking Enlarged View In-Body Image Stabilization: Supported (Only with compatible bodies) [Shu Akayama's Recommended Nikon Products] 4 Nikon 52mm Screw-On Lens Hood HN-43 Also ideal for the Nikkor Z28/2.8 and Z40/2.
