Description
Continuing Thypoch Simera's Distinctive Visual Aesthetics
The 50mm f/1.4 lens sees and reframes everyday scenes from a natural perspective. Its meticulously crafted optics live up to every poetic moment of imagination and fleeting inspiration, with a minimum focusing distance of 0.45m complemented by floating lens elements that delicately capture nuances of light and shadow. This combination evokes emotional expression and intimate storytelling, offering a fresh artistic interpretation of everyday perspectives.
Revolutionary and Stunning Close-up Capability
The Simera 50mm overcomes the common limitation of a 70cm MFD found in many M-mount 50mm lenses by offering an outstanding minimum focusing distance of only 45cm and a maximum magnification ratio of 1: 6.4, allowing for full potential in close-up and intimate photography.
Its built-in floating lens elements provide remarkable resolution when focusing at 0.45 m, comparable to that of similar rangefinder lenses that focus at 0.9 m, resulting in consistently sharp images. The focusing ring is thoughtfully designed with a resistance point at 0.7 m, guiding users to switch to EVF for distances below 0.7 m.
Expressive Bokeh Distinct Visual
With its fast f/1.4 aperture, the Simera 50mm excels in low-light conditions. The high refractive index multi-layer coatings and high refractive index elements delivers an abundant light transmission of up to T1.5, resulting in bright and vibrant images.
The cine-standard 14-blade aperture creates a round and pleasing bokeh, presenting a gentle focus falloff that evokes a three-dimensional cinematic visual. The click-and-declick aperture ring allows a smooth transition between photography and video modes for limitless creative expression.
Superior Optics Ultimate Imagery
The Simera 50mm features an 8-element, 6-group optical design, 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, delicately rendering skin textures as well as the details of highlights and shadows.
Even at its widest aperture, the image remains exceptionally sharp and clear. The HRI elements correct field curvature, ensuring edge-to-edge sharpness while keeping a compact lens body.
