APO-LANTHAR 28mm F2 Aspherical
Features
The APO-LANTHAR series of wide-angle lenses pursues the ultimate in performance, employing an apochromatic design and achieving as close to zero axial chromatic aberration of the RGB that make up the three primary colours of light as possible. It combines the performance of the best wide-angle lens in Voigtlander's history with compactness and ease of handling.


Main Features
For Sony E-mount
The lens has electronic contacts to ensure that lens usage data is included in the Exif data of captured images. Furthermore, the built-in distance encoder enables support for 5-axis image stabilization on the body side. Other features include being able to magnify the finder display by operating the focus ring.
Optimized optical design
Provides an imaging circle that covers the 35 mm full frame format and utilizes an optical design optimized for Sony E-mount sensors. High resolution is maintained up to the image periphery and color shifts are well controlled.
Apochromatic design
Axial magnification chromatic aberrations are extremely well controlled to ensure compatibility modern high pixel count digital sensors.
Manual focus for reliable focusing
Employs a very precisely machined and adjusted all metal helicoid unit lubricated with high quality grease to realize smooth focusing operation with just the right amount of torque. This enables very precise focusing.
Aperture click-stop switching mechanism
The lens employs an aperture click-stop switching mechanism that enables the aperture mechanism to be steplessly stopped down/opened up with no click-stop sound. This ensures that the sound of the aperture ring being operated is not recorded while capturing video.
