Thypoch Full-frame Photography Lens Simera 50mm f/1.4 for Nikon Z mount, silver
The Thypoch Full-frame Photography Lens Simera 50mm f/1.4 for Nikon Z mount (silver) sees and reframes everyday scenes from a natural perspective. The carefully crafted optics bring every poetic moment of imagination and fleeting inspiration to life, with a minimum focusing distance of 0.45 m, complemented by floating lens elements that subtly capture the nuances of light and shadow. This combination evokes emotional expression and intimate storytelling, offering a fresh artistic interpretation of everyday perspectives.
The Simera 50mm overcomes the common limitation of a 70 cm MFD found in many 50mm lenses by offering an excellent minimum focusing distance of just 45 cm and a maximum magnification ratio of 1:6.4, allowing close-up and intimate photography to truly shine.
The built-in floating lens elements deliver remarkable resolution when focusing at 0.45 m, comparable to that of equivalent rangefinder lenses focusing at 0.9 m, resulting in consistently sharp images. The focus ring has been carefully designed with a resistance point at 0.7 m, making it easier for users to switch to an electronic viewfinder (EVF) for distances below 0.7 m.
With its fast aperture of f/1.4, the Simera 50mm excels in low-light conditions. The high-refractive-index multilayer coatings and high-refractive-index elements ensure abundant light transmission of up to T1.5, resulting in bright and vivid images.
The cine-standard aperture with 14 blades creates a round and pleasing bokeh, with a gradual focus fall-off that evokes a three-dimensional, cinematic look. The click and de-click aperture ring ensures a smooth transition between photography and video, for boundless creative expression.
The Simera 50mm features an optical design of 8 elements in 6 groups, including one aspherical element, one extra-low dispersion (ED) element, and three high-refractive-index (HRI) elements. This configuration effectively corrects spherical and chromatic aberrations, rendering skin textures and details in highlights and shadows with subtlety and precision.
Even at the widest aperture, the image remains exceptionally sharp and clear. The HRI elements correct field curvature, ensuring edge-to-edge sharpness while keeping the lens compact.
