Voigtländer Nokton 23mm f/1.2 for Fujifilm X-mount Coming Soon

Cosina is rumored to announce the Voigtländer Nokton 23mm f/1.2 APS-C lens for Nikon Z and Fujifilm X mount. New Voigtlander lenses were on display at the 2022 CP+ show in Japan. We can see three new lenses for Nikon Z-mount and one lens for Fujifilm X-mount.

Last year, Cosina launched the Voigtländer Nokton 35mmF1.2 X, with no autofocus, but with electronic contacts which allows for transfer of EXIF data and more. Voigtlander is designing its X-mount lenses to be “rangerfinder styled”. Picture can be found below. Also it will be pretty much the same like 35mm so there will be electronic contacts but not autofocus.

See below for the new Voightlander lenses.

  • Voigtlander APO-LANTHAR 50mm f/2 Asph for Z-mount (full frame)
  • Voigtlander APO-LANTHAR 35mm f/2 Asph for Z-mount (full frame)
  • Voigtlander NOKTON D 23mm f/1.2 Asph for Z-mount (APS-C)
  • Voigtlander NOKTON D 23mm f/1.2 Asph for X-mount (APS-C)
  • Voigtlander VM-E close focus adapter II

Cosina has published the main specs and a new product image (see above) of this lens at their website in Japanese,
