Tokina opera 50mm f/1.4 FF Lens for Nikon F
The Tokina opera 50mm f/1.4 FF has been meticulously crafted to empower photographers in the creation of exceptional artistic images. This fast, standard prime lens is designed for Nikon F-mount DSLRs and features a notably bright maximum aperture of f/1.4, which enhances control over depth of field, making it particularly effective for selective focus techniques and advantageous in challenging lighting scenarios. The lens incorporates a sophisticated optical design that includes low dispersion and aspherical elements, ensuring compatibility with modern high-resolution sensors to achieve remarkable sharpness and clarity. Additionally, it is equipped with an ELR Coating that minimizes surface and internal reflections, significantly reducing flare and ghosting. To accommodate a multimedia approach, the lens utilizes a ring-shaped ultrasonic motor, delivering rapid and nearly silent autofocus performance, suitable for both photography and videography. Furthermore, the 50mm f/1.4 features a weather-sealed construction, allowing for reliable use in adverse weather conditions.
- Normal-length 50mm f/1.4 lens is designed for FX-format Nikon F-mount DSLRs, however can also be used with DX models where it provides a 75mm equivalent focal length.
- Notably bright f/1.4 maximum aperture benefits working in low-light conditions and also affords increased control over depth of field for isolating subject matter and working with selective focus techniques.
- Three Super-Low Dispersion elements are used to greatly reduce color fringing and chromatic aberrations in order to realize greater clarity and color accuracy.
- One aspherical element is located in the rear group and helps to control spherical aberrations and distortion in order to gain improved sharpness and more accurate rendering.
- ELR (Extremely Low Reflection) Coating has been applied to individual elements to suppress flare and ghosting in order to achieve greater contrast and color fidelity when working in strong lighting conditions.
- Ring-shaped ultrasonic motor delivers quick, quiet autofocus performance, as well as full-time manual focus override, that suits both stills and video applications.
- Rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality.
- Electric diaphragm mechanism is used for stable, consistent exposure results and benefits working with fast continuous shooting rates.
- Weather-sealed construction enables working with the lens in trying environmental conditions.
