Zhongyi Mitakon Sony E Mount Full Frame F0.95 lens
The very fast maximum aperture is what sets this lens apart from most of the other 50mm lenses. I don’t want to anticipate the conclusion right at the beginning, but in case you don’t want to use this lens at f/0.95 there are definetly smarter options available. I will therefore heavily concentrate on how this lens performs wide open, especially as a portrait lens.
Specifications / Version History
There have actually been two versions of this lens, the older one has a 58mm filter thread and was only produced for a very short time, it also lacked the “Dark Knight” nickname. The newer one incorporates a 67mm filter thread and is said to have been improved optically.

- Weight: 780g
- Filter Diameter: 67 mm
