The previously rumored APO 200mm f/4 Macro 1X lens for Nikon Z-mount by Zhongyi Optics is now officially announced and available for purchase on eBay for $499. Here are the details: Lens specifications: Focusing: Manual Focus Focal Length: 200mm 35mm Full-size Equivalent: 200mm Maximum and Minimum Aperture: F4.0-F32 Minimum Focusing Distance: 0.48m Lens Construction: 11 elements in 7 groups Special Elements: 3 ED lenses, 3 ultra high-index lenses, 1 extra high transmission lens Aperture Blades: 9 blades Filter Size : ø67mm Dimensions: Approx. ø75mm x 216mm (excluding mount) Weight: Approx. 1230g (with tripod mount) Sample photos Key features: Apochromatic design: The APO design, which combines multiple special lenses, effectively suppresses chromatic aberration, enabling high-resolution image expression at all shooting distances. It can be used not only for close-ups, but also as a normal telephoto lens with a focal length of 200mm, which is useful when shooting distant subjects. It is also ideal for taking advantage of beautiful bokeh and using compression effects, demonstrating unique descriptive power. Inner focus method: The inner focus system keeps the overall length of the lens unchanged even when the focus ring is operated, allowing you to concentrate on shooting without worrying about contact with the subject even when taking close-up shots. Macro photography is possible while maintaining a distance from the subject: Taking advantage of the moderate working distance, it is possible to shoot subjects that are difficult to get close to and create lighting with a high degree of freedom.
