The First Petzval Designed for Mirrorless
We are introducing the first Petzval Art Lens built specifically for full-frame mirrorless cameras. Coming standard with mounts for Canon RF, Nikon Z and Sony E - the New Petzval 55 mm f/1.7 has been streamlined with a robust, modern build quality and requires no pesky adapters.
Fine Focusing
The black brass edition features an 8-blade diaphragm aperture system regulated by a control knob, providing it with both authenticity and a vintage feel. On top it hosts a classic waterhouse aperture system allowing to tweak the bokeh with exceptional shapes.
Engineered Harmony
Featuring a new bokeh control ring, improved optic design and dual aperture system - you can manually manipulate your shots to achieve any desired style. The New Petzval 55 mm f/1.7 offers reliability and top-tier professional quality without sacrificing its vintage styling.
A Tribute to Joseph Petzval’s Legacy
Preserving the vintage quality and feel while boasting the uniformity and compatibility of present-day technology, we’ve combined the legendary 180 year old aesthetic with the dependability of today’s lenses.
Improved Bokeh Control - Deliciously Dreamy to Strikingly Sharp
Rather than changing the aperture to modify the bokeh effect, the New Petzval 55 mm f/1.7 includes a dedicated bokeh control ring - an improvement that gives this lens more flexibility than any other traditional lens.
For those fans of all things black, the New Petzval 55 mm f/1.7 brass edition in painted black will be sure to satisfy. This lens is perfect for those who want the sturdiness and quality of a brass build but just can’t escape the lure of the dark-side. Add some dreamy bokeh to your shots with our glossy smooth, blacked-out Petzval 55 mm f/1.7 lens.
