Mitakon Zhongyi Speedmaster 50mm f/0.95 III Overview

Now in its third version, the Nikon Z-mount Speedmaster 50mm f/0.95 III from Mitakon-Zhongyi is an exceptionally fast normal-length prime with enhanced flare resistance. Obviously distinguished by its f/0.95 maximum aperture, this lens excels in low-light situations and affords impressive control over depth of field. Its optical design incorporates one high refractive index element along with five ultra-low dispersion elements to produce well-corrected imagery void of spherical and chromatic aberrations. The lens's manual focus design permits working with subjects as close as 1.6' away and an 11-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality.

Normal-length prime is designed for use with full-frame Nikon Z-mount mirrorless digital cameras and can also be used with APS-C models where it provides a 75mm equivalent focal length.
Fast f/0.95 maximum aperture benefits working in difficult lighting conditions and also enables extensive control over your focus position to benefit the use of selective focus and shallow depth of field techniques.
Five ultra-low dispersion elements and one high refractive index element helps to reduce chromatic aberrations and distortions throughout the aperture range for greater sharpness, clarity, and color accuracy.
Manual focus design utilizes a floating elements system to permit focusing on subjects as close as 1.6' away.
De-clicked, stepless aperture ring permits smooth, silent aperture adjustment to benefit video applications.
An 11-blade diaphragm contributes a pleasing out-of-focus quality when working with selective focus techniques.
All-metal lens barrel features engraved depth of field and focus scales. Additionally, a metal lens mount also offers increased durability between the lens and camera.

Nice lens for the price.. while it lasted... Bad Tech Suppor

By Eduardo
Rated 2 out of 5
Date: 2024-12-10

Image is nice but was expecting a more shallow depth of field. The lens split in two while adjust focus. I tried several times to reach tech support from the Manufacturer (since the lens was under warranty), but they NEVER got back to me

Pros: Phenomenally capable Solid build Center sharpness is top-tier stopped down to 1.6 Quite compact for it's capability Dirt cheap compared to other f/1's Cons: No autofocus No exif data Soft wide open but could be a pro due to dreamy effect- a matter of preference
