Description
Before the digital era transformed photography, the original Primoplan 58mm f/1.9 lens, crafted by the ingenious Meyer-Optik designer Paul Schafter, set a benchmark for light intensity and optical performance. Today, the Primoplan 58mm f/1.9 II Lens for Micro Four Thirds stands as a testament to that legacy, re-engineered to meet the demands of modern photographers while preserving the iconic character that made its predecessor legendary.The Primoplan 58mm f/1.9 II is a high-quality, professional-grade lens that offers unparalleled versatility and reliability for Micro Four Thirds camera users. Its large f/1.9 aperture not only allows for exceptional low-light performance but also provides photographers with the ability to achieve the signature bokeh effect that Meyer-Optik Gorlitz lenses are renowned for. This lens is particularly adept at creating a dreamlike, out-of-focus background that accentuates the subject, making it an ideal choice for portrait and fine art photography.The lens's bokeh is characterized by its adaptability; at maximum aperture, the background swirls with a magical flow of lights, while at narrower apertures, it transforms into a 'creamy' texture with subtle details, offering a smooth transition from sharpness to blur that adds a three-dimensional quality to images. The 14-blade aperture contributes to this effect, rendering out-of-focus lights as nearly perfect circles and enhancing the overall aesthetic of the photograph.The exceptional design of the Primoplan 58mm f/1.9 II is a product of meticulous engineering. It features a unique optical arrangement where a central dispersion lens is flanked by two converging lens groups. The rear group includes a single biconvex converging lens, which ensures consistent brilliance and clarity across the entire frame. This innovative design, refined by Dr. Wolf-Dieter Prenzel, has been optimized for the digital age, ensuring that the lens meets the high standards of today's photographers without compromising the classic Primoplan character.Crafted with high-quality glass and superior coatings, the Primoplan 58mm f/1.9 II Lens delivers optical excellence, producing sharp, detailed images with accurate color rendition and minimal distortion. Its durable construction ensures that it can withstand the rigors of professional use, making it a reliable choice for photographers who demand the best in optical performance.Whether you're a seasoned professional or an enthusiast looking to elevate your photography, the Primoplan 58mm f/1.9 II for Micro Four Thirds is a lens that promises to inspire creativity and deliver images of the highest caliber.
