Battle of the 40mm lenses for Nikon

Great job with the testing, Scott. I really value these kinds of comparisons.


Thanks Fred.

I was interested to see if any of these lenses other than the Ultron exhibit a distinct flare ring.

I have gotten quite used to pulling it out of the Ultron on demand wide open, and you can see here in similar conditions and settings it just wasn't happening on the Septon (just getting a purple ghost orb). I could only get just a bit out of the Nokton as well (above the sun).

The TTA exhibits a green ghosting blob and the Nikon really does nothing except bloom, which is pretty impressive.

All shots wide open on their respective lenses.

Thanks Fred. I was interested seeing the rainbow ring you got out of the Septon on E mount. I'm having a very hard time getting anything like that out of this on Z. EDIT: now i can't find those pics, maybe I was conflating with another Voigt you reviewed?
