Part of the press release:

  • Design with nostalgia and functionality. The focus ring and aperture ring are made of solid metal, while the large carved finger grip and precision-cut fluted pattern evoke not only nostalgia and beauty, but also a handcrafted feel.
  • Manual focusing for reliable operation: Thanks to the use of an all-metal helicoidal block, which has been machined and adjusted with high precision and high-quality lubrication to ensure adequate torque, smooth focusing is achieved.
  • Choose the look variations as a tribute to interchangeable lenses for 1965 (1965-1974) film SLR cameras.

  • Rodion

    Something I do not understand why they have the design of the old nikkor?

    • Rodion

      And, logically, since under nikon ...

      • Arkady Shapoval

        yes, the lens is exclusively for Nikon F

  • Sergei

    Probably a retro version of the 28mm wide-angle for retro style cameras like Nikon Df

  • Oleg

    brutal, their price is also brutal

    • Victor

      The thing is not for everybody, considering that for almost the same money you can take a native, autofocus, lighter and (quite likely) with a higher image quality at comparable apertures, Nikkor 28 1.8G. Well, this is someone to "go", not "checkers", with "a tribute to interchangeable lenses for film SLR cameras 1965"

      • Zheka

        Did you yourself shoot with Fochtländer or so, read it on the Internet?

        • Victor

          I understand, hinting at oysters)

          But lenses are not seafood, just see the pictures on the Internet.

          • Zheka

            I have a focht portrait that I use, and you read it on the Internet, is there a difference? Why write about something you don't understand? Ai, ai-s are normal lenses, but this is a good quality budget lens and that's it.

            • Oleg

              This budget office does not release anything

              • Arkady Shapoval

                Moreover, this is no longer Voigtlander, but Cosina

            • Victor

              Now, if you really showed the difference in the photos between the mentioned nikkor 28 / 1.8 and this focht, and (!!!) with a clear preponderance of focht in the picture, because in all other respects nikkor outweighs, it would be a conversation.

              While this looks like a justification for the correctness of your own purchase on emotions, sorry.

        • Arkady Shapoval

          I haven't seen much magic from modern Cosina in the person of Voigtlander. Under the full frame, there is usually something nostalgic, under the micro there are a couple of interesting gizmos - https://radojuva.com/2020/02/voigtlander-nokton-0-95/
          In general, it is strange that they hit the micra

  • Juozas M.

    Vesnoi etogo goda ja kupil Voigtlander Nokton 58mm pri 1,4 dlia Nikon D750. Etogo objektiva nelzjaa sravnivat`s serijei Nikkor, potomu chto on prednaznachen iskliuchitelno dlia tvorcheskoi raboti. S nim porabotaesch i drugogo uzhe ne voz`miosh.

    • Oleg

      But where is creativity here, everything has gone red and there is no sharpness

      • Juozas M.

        Oleg, ne vsegda eta rezkost` nuzhna. Samoe chief, eto spektr.

        • Victor

          Spectrum ... Hm ... What do you mean by this term?

          • Juozas M.

            Tak kak fotografiruju uzhe bol`she chem 50 let, nabral koe kakoi opit, takzhe cherez svoji ruki propustil ne malo fototechniki. Ja ne stanu obsuzhdat` technicheskuju specifikaciju izdelija, potomu chto eto est` tol`ko pervonachal`naja informacija. Na etom saite ja vnimatelno chitaju otzivi potrebitelei. Dolgo i intensivno snimal svad`bi, no tak kak uzhe goda ne te, fotokomercijei uzhe ne zanimajus`, i foto ostalos` kak hobi. V dannij moment fotografiruju na Nikon D750 iv osnovnom dvymia objektivami: Nikkor 24-70; 2,8 VR i Voigtlander 58 mm; 1,4. Obrabativaju na Capture One Pro 20. Esli sravnivat` eti dva objektiva, to Voigtlander po cvetovomu spektru, bjiot v odni vorota. Ego optika miagkaja, prekrasno peredajiot cvet kozhi. A eto samoe glavnoe dlia tex, kto fotografiruet priamo na JPEG i otsilajut dlia gazet ili zhurnalov. Neudobstvo tol`ko odno-etot objektiv ne imeet avtofokusa is nim trudnovato dlia reportazhnoi s`emki. Voigtlander kupil v magazine za 749,00 Euro. Tak kak ja ego imeju uzhe okolo goda, ne po naslishke a sam fotografiruju, smelo rekomenduju etot objektiv. Dlia portreta-eto sila.

            • Andrii

              To est 'spektr- eto cvet kozhi v jpg?
              Zapishu sebe v citaty.

              • Juozas M.

                Andrij… eto vasha nasmeshka v moj adress? Dazhe esli tak, to ja ne obizhajus`. Ja slishkom mnogo vremeni provel v praktike. Ja ne ricar` PC po teorii. Ja praktik. Ja vilozhil 2 svoi foto. Poakzhite Vashi. Potom razgovor prodlim.

              • Andrii

                Praktik, vam zadaly konkretnij vopros cto est 'spectr v vashem ponimanii, cto vashi foto zavaleny v krasniy? Vmesto otveta vi rasskazyvaete nikomu ne interesnuyu grustnuyu istoriyu o tom, skolko vi snimaete, za skolko kupili objective I v chem obrabatyvaete. Kak mozhno k vam otnositsa ser'ezno?

            • Victor

              The fact that the optics are soft is noticeable.

              As for the color of the skin ... Well, a kind of skin color, frankly, but I perfectly understand that in your opinion it may look great, so we will not discuss this point.

              The only thing, from the photo, it is not entirely clear what is the salt of a non-autofocus lens at the price of two 85 / 1.4D, that's honest. Probably, I do not have enough experience, I have to shoot for another 40 years.

              • Juozas M.

                Uvazhaemij Viktor. Mne trudno izlogat` svoji misli na russkom jazike, no ja poprobuju. Zdes` na saite “Radozhiva” ja nashiol ochen` poleznoi technicheskoi informaciji. Nekotoraja-unikalnaja. No inogda real`no ne tak zhizn` xorosha, kak predstavliajut izgotoviteli v reklamnix rolikax. Esli govorit` pro firmu Voigtlander, to ona bila osnovana v 1756 godu v Germaniji, v gorode Braunšveig, kak proizvoditel` optiki i fotoizdelij. Rabotala do 1972 goda. Osnovatel`: Johann Christoph Voigtländer. Vot Vam i glavnij otvet, pochemu tak doroga eta optika. No eto eschio ne vsio. Voigtlander objektvi izgotavlivajutssia ne iz butilok iz pod vina “Zolotaja osen`”, a primeniaetssia svincovoe steklo, i izgotavlivaetssia tolko na teritoriji Japoniji, tak kak v Europe izgotovklenilaap etogochen Vot otvet, pochemu tak dorogo stoit. Ja ne poshiol v magazin kak za kartoshkoj i ne kupil, ja etot objektiv zakazival i zhdal 3 mesiaca poka prislali iz Japoniji.

              • Jea reth

                They are produced in Japan because Fochtländer is no longer a company, but simply a trademark, the rights to which belong to the Cosina company. There is absolutely nothing from the Fochtlander.

              • Victor

                Sorry, I can't help but quote an excerpt from a well-known film, which, in my opinion, is quite suitable for the situation)))

                “-“ A crouton in our restaurant is called crouton ”. This is exactly the same slice of toasted bread, but the crouton cannot cost $ 8, and the crouton can. And then you start looking for at least some taste that distinguishes this crouton from toast. And you find it! "

              • Victor

                These lead glasses, Christoph Voithlander from 17 .. some year there, made strictly to order, strictly on the full moon by Japanese maidens ...

                And, however, the main thing is that you like it. The rest is little things.

            • Oleg

              these are essentially two new kenon 85 \ 1.8 where on modern DSLRs the camera will focus on the face in love view. I don't know how justified this choice is

              • Arkady Shapoval

                I shot with the Nokton 58mm F1.4 SL, a nice manual modern lens with a classic twist. Such lenses do not have a rational cost, here you have to pay for the magic, which, in fact, lies not in the lens.

              • Victor

                Thinly :)

  • Not a bot

    This is what I understand retro wanking, not your Nikon Zed F tse.

  • Jea reth

    New. Pseudo-nikkor. From the goat. Under nikon-f.
    What for?

    • Arkady Shapoval

      Money

  • Mute

    How does this “new” lens differ from the now rare version from 2012?
    https://www.dpreview.com/products/voigtlander/lenses/voigtlander_28_2p8_slii

    The price is the same for both new and old.
    The case is visually slightly different, the optical scheme is probably the same.
