Craftsmanship Shines in the M-Mount Interchangeable Lens 'Noctilux M 50mm F1.2' Released | Focus Workshop

The 'M NOCTILUCENT 50mm f/1.2 ASPH.' is a new model that recreates the Leica 'Noctilux M f1.2/50mm' introduced in 1966. It was commercialized by a Chinese investor named Zhou, and is affectionately known locally as 'Zhou Nocti'.

Available in four types: Black Anodized (aluminum barrel), Black Paint (brass barrel), Silver Chrome (brass barrel), and Titanium (titanium barrel). Limited to 800 sets, it is attracting attention among collectors.

The 'Noctilux M f1.2/50mm' uses the 'Type 900403' high refractive glass independently developed by the Leitz Glass Laboratory, featuring aspherical lenses polished by hand for over 72 hours.

Quality control is thorough, with every unit inspected using state-of-the-art measuring equipment under constant temperature and humidity.
