Description — Mitakon Zhongyi 50mm f/0.95 Mark II
The Mitakon Zhongyi Speedmaster 50mm f/0.95 Mark II is a manual focus, full-frame prime lens with a headline f/0.95 maximum aperture — giving photographers access to extreme low-light performance and razor-thin depth of field in a standard 50mm focal length. Designed specifically for the mirrorless camera system, it is offered in Sony E, Canon RF, Nikon Z, and Leica M mounts, making it accessible to a wide range of shooters. The 82mm filter thread supports the use of large-format filters, and the lens weighs in at 720g — substantial, but consistent with the demands of building a fast-aperture optic at this level.
There is no image stabilization and no autofocus, positioning this lens firmly for photographers who shoot deliberately and value maximum aperture and manual control above convenience features. Whether used for portraiture, street photography, or creative low-light work, the f/0.95 aperture is the defining characteristic of this lens.

Frequently Asked Questions — Mitakon Zhongyi 50mm f/0.95 Mark II
Which camera mounts is this lens available in?+
The Speedmaster 50mm f/0.95 Mark II is available in Sony E, Canon RF, Nikon Z, and Leica M mounts. This covers the major full-frame mirrorless platforms, so be sure to select the correct mount for your camera body.
Does this lens have autofocus?+
No — this lens is manual focus only. There is no autofocus motor of any kind. Photographers will need to focus manually, which works well for controlled shooting scenarios such as portraiture or still subjects.
Will it cover a full-frame sensor?+
Yes. The lens is specified for full-frame format, so it will provide complete coverage on full-frame mirrorless cameras without cropping or significant vignetting.
Does the lens have image stabilization?+
No, image stabilization is listed as none. If your camera body has in-body image stabilization, you may be able to take advantage of that, but the lens itself provides no optical stabilization.
What filter size does this lens use?+
The filter thread diameter is 82mm. This is a large diameter, so make sure any filters you plan to use — such as ND or polarizers — are sized accordingly.
How heavy is the Speedmaster 50mm f/0.95 Mark II?+
The lens weighs 720g. For an f/0.95 prime, this is the expected trade-off for the wide aperture, though it may feel front-heavy on smaller mirrorless bodies.
