Superior Aperture

The Argus 25mm f0.95 CF APO joins the Argus series of premium prime lenses with its ultra-fast aperture. With a maximum f0.95 aperture, you can effortlessly create a much shallower depth of field to clearly separate your subject from the background. This ultra-fast aperture also provides incredible low-light performance, ensuring images are still sharp and crisp in any environment. Thanks to the lens’ nine-bladed aperture, artistic bokeh is created in out-of-focus areas - making backgrounds look dreamlike for stunning portrait photography.

Outstanding Construction

This lens’ APO design and lens construction ensures images are always of the highest quality. The Argus 25mm f0.95 CF APO is engineered with fourteen elements in nine groups; one of them being an extra-low dispersion glass and two being ultra-high refraction glass. Together they suppress longitudinal and lateral chromatic aberration across the entire frame.

Versatile and adaptable, the 25mm focal length on the APS-C sensor is equivalent to the 35mm focal length in a full-frame format and also has a 34cm close focusing distance. A semi-wide focal length lets you shoot any project - whether that's portrait, landscape or street photography - and the minimum focusing distance lets you get up close and capture every detail in a subject.

Functional Design

Just like the other lenses in the Argus series, the Argus 25mm f0.95 CF APO sports clever design features and functions that lets you focus on taking the perfect shot. This lens has internal focusing which not only prevents dust from getting into the lens but also enhances stability and lowers the focus breathing effect.

An aperture ring click switch lets you quickly choose between having a clicked or silent aperture ring, which comes particularly useful for those who work between photography and video. Of course, the lens is compatible with a range of accessories such as polarisers and petal-shaped lens hoods.
