Pre-orders for the MR.DING Noxlux DG 50mm F1.2 lens, a large-aperture prime lens for Nikon Z mount, are underway. Shipments are scheduled to begin in late August 2025. The suggested retail price is $599, but the preorder price is listed as $439 US dollars.
The MR.DING Noxlux DG 50mm F1.2 has a metal exterior inspired by Nikon’s famous AI/AI-S lenses, but is also equipped with the latest AR coating and electronic contacts, giving it a classic look and modern comfort.
The lens has the appeal of being a “tool that you can talk about” that enriches the shooting experience itself.
MR.DING Noxlux DG 50mm F1.2 Features
Texture and design that satisfies the soul
The lens barrel is finished with a tire tread-like focus ring and classic white and orange distance indicators. The thin chrome lines stand out against the matte piano black lens barrel, giving it a texture that makes it a joy to own.
The lens design blends in beautifully with any body.
The latest specs for enjoying photography
The 12-blade circular aperture achieves beautiful circular bokeh even at the maximum aperture of F1.2. It gives a natural three-dimensional effect to portraits. The metal aperture ring (1/3EV increments) with a clicky feel is also designed for ease of use.
The lens also comes equipped with electronic contacts, supporting automatic recording of Exif data, accurately reflects lens information used, and allows for smooth editing and organization.
From aspiration to practicality
While maintaining its classic appearance, it incorporates AR coating, electronic integration, and modern imaging performance. It is optimized for the Z mount mirrorless system and is said to elevate the Z camera to a “speakable presence.”
