    The 28mm all-rounder for street, reportage, and available light

    28mm is ideal when images need to show proximity without losing context. The Nokton Type I leverages this strength and combines it with an extreme maximum aperture. For street, reportage, and everyday scenes in low light, this means: more atmosphere in the image, shorter shutter speeds, and a perspective that feels natural yet conveys dynamism.

    Combining proximity and context in a single image

    This 28mm is aimed at photographers who use wide-angle not just for an overview, but to deliberately build atmosphere. It allows for proximity to the subject without losing the sense of space, creating images with tangible depth. Especially in reportage and everyday situations, this creates a look that feels present without being intrusive.

    Modern optics for high demands

    The optical construction of 10 elements in 8 groups, including aspherical elements, is designed to deliver impressive imaging performance even at wide-open aperture. In practice, this results in good sharpness, stable contrast, and a consistent rendering across the entire image field. This makes the lens suitable not only for available light but also for landscapes, cityscapes, and documentary series.

    Work flexibly, react spontaneously

    In everyday photography, the lens proves to be a versatile tool for changing situations. Whether it’s a spontaneous moment on the street or a deliberately composed scene with a foreground – the short focusing distance significantly expands creative scope. The compact housing supports a workflow where the camera remains part of the movement rather than becoming an obstacle.
