Q: 1. which means only rangefinder lens is the best for Sony7aS ? because i am looking for lens below f1.5. thanks

A: If your criteria are a fast, manual lens, the Voigtlander line of lenses is difficult to beat. I keep the 42.5 f/0.95 on my Pana GX7 continually and have it with me at all times. The build quality is second to none; on a scale of 1 to 10, its between a nineteen and a twenty-three. The lens is often described as heavy, and it is. I prefer heavy to light and wispy as most plastic lenses are. For me, the extra weight helps stabilize things when things get bouncy. I need all the help I can get in that department. Another positive, not to be over looked, is the 10-blade diaphragm, which is another clue to the quality of this lens.As a final thought, if you intend to shoot 4K video with the Sony 7aS, I cant think of a better lens to do it with, quality-wise. I think you will be shocked, as I was, when you view your first video with this lens. My daughter-in-law thinks the first video I shot, was so superior to what she was getting from professionals, she wanted to ask for her money back. She thinks its me, and I know its the equipment. I hope this helps with your decision.

Q: 2. What diameter gear ring does this lens need to be used with a smallrig F40 manual follow focus?

A: The Simmod SIMple Fit Follow Focus Gear (Small, 10mm), BH #SISF10SM, or the Tilta Seamless Focus Gear Ring (62.5 to 64.5mm), BH #TITAFGR6264, would be good gear rings to consider when looking for a gear ring to pair with the Voigtlander Nokton 42.5mm f/0.95 Micro Four Thirds Lens.

Q: 3. Can this lens be used on a Nikon Z9?

A: Yes Meike 7.5mm f/2.8 Fisheye Lens for Nikon Z is compatible with the Nikon Z9. The Nikon Z9 is full frame though and this is a crop aps-c lens so it will crop the full frame sensor. Less than half of the available megapixels will be used. The angle of view will increase by 1.5x

Q: 4. I've had trouble with manual focus before with lenses that didn't have OIS when shooting handheld and so I have to ask; without the assistance of focus peaking, or OIS to help steady the image, how difficult is focusing on this lens while shooting handheld?

A: Why wouldn't you have focus peaking? As far as my understanding goes, that's a process that purely involves the camera; you could be using a pin-hole and still have focus peaking (albeit no focusing ability).I only use manual focus lenses for video, so maybe my personal experience is not a good parameter for you, but while I haven't tried this particular lens (saving up to buy it), focusing is a real pleasure with any of the other focal lengths in this Voigtlander series as they are extremely well built (10.5, 17.5 and 25 mm) and they have a fairly decent long-throw barrel. I HAVE tried a vintage Canon FD 50 mm f1.4 on a GH4, which is more similar in focal length, and the main problems that arise have more to do with the poor build quality of the lens and the fact that it's made purely for photography.If you're willing to go through a bit of trial and error at the beginning, I think you'll find this lens to be great for manual focus, as I have for the rest of the series.

Q: 5. Anyone use this lens with a camera that lacks image stabilization?I'm a wedding videographer currently shooting with G7s. All my lenses right now have IS, so I'm wondering if this lens will still perform well without any IS. All shooting will be on monopod, slider, or gimbal. Thanks!

A: It is a great lens, you just need to bring up your shutter speed one or two stops to prevent any possible noticeable camera shake.

Q: 6. Has anyone used this with a GH5?Seems this would be a great cost-effective alternative to the 42.5 mm Panasonic Nocticron, but will focus peaking and the 3-position rack focusing features still work with this manual focus lens?

A: Focus peaking will work with manual lenses, like the Voigtlander Nokton 42.5mm f/0.95 Micro Four Thirds lens, however the Panasonic Transition focus rack focusing feature will not be compatible with manual lenses.

Q: 7. These are listed as MFT, but is that referring only to the mount? Does the image circle only fit a MFT sensor, or will it cover a full frame as well? I've noticed alot of marketing for these lenses state the full frame equivalent, which leads me to believe the image circle is not specifically the size of the MFT sensor.

A: This lens is for both an MFT mount and only cover an MFT sized sensor. It does not cover a Super 35mm Sized Sensor.

Q: 8. How much "shake" will you get with this lens mounted on a MFT camera such as the Z Cam? I know this lens is not stabilized.

A: As a general rule of thumb, your shutter speed should be about twice the focal length of the lens on an MFT camera in order to prevent camera shake blur. Therefore you should be using a shutter speed around 1/90th or a second or faster when using the camera handheld.

Q: 9. Does this lense work (without any adaptor) on an Olympus OM-D E-M1?

A: yes, it does. that's why it is micro four thirds lens. you attach it directly to the micro four thirds body, without any adapter. keep in mind that it is manual focus all the time.

Q: 10. can it be mount on Olympus Pen-F?

A: Yes this Voigtlander Nokton 42.5mm f/0.95 Micro Four Thirds Lens will mount properly onto any micro four thirds mount camera, including the Olympus Pen-F.
