The Voigtlander Ultron 27mm f/2 lens for Fujifilm X-mount is now officially announced. Pre-orders should open soon at Adorama and B&H Photo. Here are the details:
The ULTRON 27mm F2 X mount is a standard lens designed exclusively for the Fujifilm X mount. By designing the maximum aperture value at F2, which is sufficiently bright for practical use, the overall size of the product is compact. With a total length of 23.5 mm from the mount, it is highly portable, and the angle of view equivalent to a full-frame equivalent of 40mm can capture a slightly wider area than a typical standard lens, so it can be used for many purposes.
Exclusively designed for Fujifilm X mount
Equipped with an optical system optimized for the image sensor of the Fujifilm X system camera. High resolution is maintained to the image periphery without relying on the camera's optical correction function, and phenomena such as color cast are also suppressed.
Information communication with the body by electronic contact
Equipped with electronic contacts for highly reliable electrical communication between the lens and body. In addition to Exif information, focus check, and shooting distance linked display, certain models also support in-body image stabilization and parallax correction through the combination of a body that supports telecommunications and the latest firmware (*1).
Manual focus for reliable focus operation
The use of an all-metal helicoid unit that has been processed and adjusted with high precision and high-quality grease that produces just the right amount of torque enables focusing with a smooth operating feel .
Beautiful bokeh with 10 aperture blades
A 10-blade diaphragm is used to make the hole formed by the diaphragm blades closer to a circle. Out-of-focus areas are rendered naturally, and point light sources are not polygonal but round and soft.
Aperture ring for direct mechanical operation
The aperture mechanism uses a mechanism in which the aperture ring is directly connected to the opening and closing of the aperture blades, similar to Voigtlander's VM mount and mirrorless mount lenses . mechanism directly.
Focus ring for excellent operability
Operability is improved by equipping the focus ring for focus adjustment with a lever that is easy to put on with your fingers. You can also know the approximate distance you set without looking at the distance indicator depending on the position of the lever.
Minimum shooting distance 0.25m
Despite its compact style, the shortest shooting distance is 0.25m. It also supports table photos such as dishes and favorite accessories.
