Product Features
The Biotar 75mm F1.5II is a prime MF lens (actual aperture) from Meyer Optik Görlitz, a high-end German lens manufacturer. It inherits and develops the traditional image quality and wide range of uses of the original Biotar 75mm F1.5, developed by the ingenious designer Willi Merté in the 1930s, with the latest technology.
The Biotar 75mm F1.5II is known for its sharp center and powerful swirling bokeh, with circular rendering of background details, drawing you into the vortex, and subtle shadow and highlight contrast that gives the subject a nice three-dimensional look.
The Biotar 75mm F1.5II reproduces contrast well even at the minimum aperture. It also has excellent color reproduction and well-balanced magnification chromatic aberration. Therefore, it is recommended not only for portrait photography but also for landscape, nature photography, architecture, etc.
The Biotar 75mm F1.5II is a cutting-edge technology lens that was developed after intensive analysis and development, as well as several prototype tests, and is made of the best optical glass, special AR coatings, precision-manufactured parts, and features a double Gauss lens with 6 lenses in 4 groups to capture the historic imaging of the original Biotar 75mm.
