Product Overview

The Thypoch Simera 21mm f/1.4 ASPH. is a lens that combines an ultra-wide-angle field of view with a large f/1.4 aperture, opening up new possibilities for spatial expression. With a minimum focusing distance of 0.23m, it can not only capture magnificent landscapes dynamically but also render delicate expressions and textures from a close-up perspective. The optical system consists of two aspherical elements, three ED elements, and three high-refractive index elements, achieving high resolution from the center to the periphery and excellent distortion correction. The 14-blade aperture creates natural, smooth bokeh and beautiful starbursts, enabling depictions with depth and dimensionality. Combining excellent optical performance and expressive power, its rendering, reminiscent of Leica's f/1.4 series, makes it an ideal wide-angle lens for photographers seeking immersive wide-angle depictions.

Key Features

[Cutting-edge optical technology]
A precise optical structure incorporating a floating design achieves excellent imaging performance while maintaining a compact size. It maintains high sharpness from the center to the edges of the frame, delivering outstanding clarity and dimensionality even with 60-megapixel class high-resolution sensors.

[High resolution with suppressed aberrations and beautiful bokeh]
Adopts an advanced optical design combining two aspherical elements, three ED elements, and three high-refractive index elements. This effectively suppresses chromatic aberration and flare, achieving high sharpness and clear resolution from the center to the periphery of the frame. Furthermore, Thypoch's high-precision aspherical lens technology suppresses onion rings in bokeh, enabling smooth and beautiful bokeh expression.

[Immersive feel rendered by the 21mm wide-angle]
The shallow depth of field at f/1.4 makes subjects stand out three-dimensionally. With a minimum focusing distance of 0.23m, it's possible to get close to subjects and achieve impressive rendering with a softly blurred background, despite the wide angle. It beautifully expresses the integration of subjects and space in various scenes, including landscapes, environmental portraits, everyday snapshots, and close-ups.

[Equipped with Visifocus]
Equipped with Visifocus (depth of field visual scale) that visualizes the depth of field according to the focusing distance. The scale uses red dot marks to improve visibility. It intuitively indicates the in-focus range before and after the point of focus in conjunction with the focusing distance and aperture operations, supporting quick focusing.

[Fusion of classic design and modern operability]
The robust all-metal body and classic appearance create a unique presence. The aperture ring is engraved with "sun" and "moon" symbols, and the click can be switched on or off. This allows for smooth changes and preferred operability.

[Supports switching between rangefinder and EVF]
The minimum focusing distance is 0.23m, allowing for sharp rendering of fine details by getting close to the subject. Furthermore, it supports focusing with a rangefinder, and a slight resistance at the 0.7m position on the focus ring allows for intuitive understanding of the distance where a switch from the rangefinder to the EVF is necessary.
