Discover the AuraLens Pro 50mm f/1.4

Engineered for Excellence

The AuraLens Pro 50mm f/1.4 is meticulously engineered for professional photographers and videographers across Australia seeking exceptional image quality, robust build, and intuitive handling. It combines advanced aspherical elements with state-of-the-art multi-layer coatings to deliver outstanding edge-to-edge sharpness and stunningly smooth bokeh, making it incredibly versatile. This lens is perfect for everything from demanding portrait sessions in urban Sydney to capturing the vast, dramatic landscapes of the Outback, excelling even in challenging low-light conditions.

Dive deep into its capabilities: the lens features a weather-sealed construction using premium, lightweight metal alloys for durability without excessive bulk. The optical formula consists of 10 elements in 8 groups, including three aspherical (ASPH) elements and one ultra-low dispersion (ULD) element to rigorously control spherical aberration, distortion, and chromatic aberrations. Autofocus is driven by a newly developed linear stepping motor (LSM) that provides swift, accurate, and near-silent performance, ideal for both stills and video. The manual focus experience is equally refined, with a well-dampened, responsive focus ring offering precise control. Its versatility makes it a prime choice for portraiture, street photography, documentary work, and low-light event coverage.

Why AuraLens Pro Stands Out

Unmatched Clarity

Powered by three advanced aspherical elements and ultra-low dispersion glass, the AuraLens Pro minimizes aberrations, capturing images with breathtaking detail and true-to-life colour from corner to corner, even wide open at f/1.4.

Blazing-Fast Autofocus

Utilizing a newly developed linear stepping motor, the AuraLens Pro achieves rapid, precise, and virtually silent autofocus, ensuring you never miss fleeting moments, crucial for wildlife, sports, and candid street photography.

Exquisite Bokeh & Control

An 11-blade circular diaphragm creates beautifully round and smooth background blur (bokeh) for stunning subject separation. Combined with the bright f/1.4 aperture, it excels in low light and offers incredible creative control.

Built for Australian Conditions

Crafted with a durable, all-metal barrel and comprehensive weather sealing, the AuraLens Pro is designed to withstand the diverse Australian climate, from dusty outback tracks to coastal sprays, ensuring reliability wherever you shoot.
