Meyer-Optik Goerlitz has announced the Trimagon f2.6/95, a new portrait lens featuring a unique coating and design to deliver sharp images with minimal reflections, preserving skin tone. The triplet architecture 15-blade design adds Meyer Optik's trademark bokeh to Trimagon 95 images.

"While the Trioplan 100 restored Meyer-Optik's long lens to the artistic photography market, the Trimagon 95 provides professionals a dynamic modern lens that delivers extraordinary portraits and natural-looking photographs," said Meyer-Optik Goerlitz CEO Dr. Stefan Immes.

"The remarkable nature of the lens is its rendering of secondary light, specifically providing realistic reflections of the finest structures."

Highlights of the new lens include:

  • A unique coating on the lens reduces flare and reflections, the company said.
  • The Trimagon f2.6/95 features high-index glass from Schott or O'Hara, providing sharpness suitable for resolutions beyond 60 megapixels.
  • Like all Meyer-Optik lenses, the Trimagon f2.6/95 is handmade in Germany.
