New Petzval 55 mm f/1.7 MKII Black Aluminium

As someone who relies on the flexibility of a package to be able to switch quickly between photo and video, this lens fell right into the package without any problem.
-Daniel Sawyer Schaefer

I really loved the lens, indeed it helped me break the effect, sometimes too clean, kind of ‘clinical’ of digital. The bokeh is amazing.
-Geoffrey Yahya Vargas

It encouraged me to jump outside of my comfort zone and explore photography in a way that I hadn’t really done before
-Zayira Ray

The lens brings a very special effect which you cannot produce with your normal lenses. It breaks through your routine and gives you something completely different.
-Axel Gülcher

Features

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.

Dual Aperture System
A new stepless aperture ring operating an 8-blade diaphragm aperture gives the lens huge versatility alongside its ease of use. The aperture diaphragm and long-throw focusing ring combine to make this incredibly adaptable to the filmmakers arsenal. 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.

Coming in a fresh, modern finish the New Petzval 55 mm f/1.7 aluminum edition in anodized black is a clean, professional choice to complement your set-up. This matte black lens is shrouded in an aura of elegance and is sure to make a lovely pairing with the latest gear in photography and filmmaking.

Along with aluminum in anodized black, the New Petzval 55 mm f/1.7 comes in a brass coated with a sleek, painted-black finish, as well as in the solid, satin finished brass edition. All finishes are compatible with Canon RF, Nikon Z and Sony E mounts, be sure to choose the option that fits your equipment.
