The latest entry is DJ-Optical with his 50mm 1.0 lens for M-mount &#8211; produced only in small quantities and officially being sold only in China at the moment. Thanks to one of my readers I was still able to acquire one of these to review it for you, so let&#8217;s have a closer look at this intriguing lens.<br \/>\n<em>This lens will be reviewed on the 24mp

Huge emphasize was put on the aesthetics here: which fonts on the casing to be used, what kind of engraving, what type of aluminium and its polishing process, even specifically made stainless steel screws were used.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>There are still some design oddities though. On the lens hood is written &#8220;Noctis Lux by DJ-OPtical&#8221; (no idea why the &#8220;P&#8221; is capital here) whereas on the lens&#8217; retention ring is written &#8220;NyctaLux&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>It was said that only 300 pieces of this lens will be made, which is a very low number and the preorder price of 370\u20ac was also surprisingly low. Interestingly after the preorder period the price has been raised to almost 800\u20ac for the remaining copies.<\/p>\n<h2>Handling \/ Build Quality<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_82126\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-82126\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-82126\" src=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/DJ-Optical_50mm_1.0_M.jpg\" alt=\"review DJ DJO DJ-optical optical china leica m 50mm 1.0 f\/1.0 1,0 f\/1,0 lens contrast resolution m11 m10 42mp 24mp 61mp m6 analogue contrast bokeh vignetting\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/DJ-Optical_50mm_1.0_M.jpg 800w, https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/DJ-Optical_50mm_1.0_M-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/DJ-Optical_50mm_1.0_M-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-82126\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">DJ-Optical 50mm 1.0<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Generally this DJ-Optical lens takes a lot of inspiration from Leica&#8217;s M-mount lenses. Font, colors and even the red dot look very similar, only the gold plated bayonet is something you don&#8217;t usually see on Leica&#8217;s lenses.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of focus ring and aperture ring this DJ-Optical actually feels better than the modern Leica lenses I handled, especially because the aperture ring is not wobbly and has clearly defined hard stops at both ends.<\/p>\n<p>The focus ring rotates 120\u00b0 from the minimum focus distance of 0.7 m to infinity.

render a perfect circle, but only lenses with very low optical vignetting will keep this shape in the corners.<br \/>\nSo in the following comparison we move from the center (left) to the extreme

Similar to some over very fast lenses, contrast and resolution do not peak in the same focal plane at closer distances and the focal plane with the least chromatic aberrations is yet another one.<\/p>\n<p>You can see these three &#8220;options&#8221; above. The first picture shows the highest possible contrast but also strong chromatic aberrations and bad resolution. The second one shows good resolution but very low contrast and again strong chromatic aberrations. The third shows the least amount of chromatic aberrations but contrast and resolution are somewhat inbetween.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Which would be the right one? That depends on what you prefer and what you are taking pictures of. For me, if I had to pick one of these, it would be the one with the least amount of chromatic aberrations, so we continue with that one.<\/p>\n<p><div class=\"osc-res-tab tabbable

m, that isn&#8217;t true for those being as fast as f\/1.0 or f\/0.95. The <a href=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/review-voigtlander-vm-50mm-1-0-nokton-the-actually-fastest-m-mount-lens\/\">Voigtl\u00e4nder VM 50mm 1.0 Nokton<\/a> offers 0.9 m, <a href=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/review-leica-50mm-0-95-noctilux-m-asph\/\">Leica 50mm 0.95<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/review-zhong-yi-50mm-0-95-m\/\">Zhong Yi 50mm 0.95 M<\/a> only 1.0 m &#8211; despite the Voigtl\u00e4nder and the Leica featuring floating elements designs, that could ensure better performance at closer distances.<\/p>\n<p>Personally, I am always happy when a lens focuses close, but when looking at the performance in this category, we see why other manufacturers decided to limit the minimum focus distance of their super fast 50mm lenses. At f\/1.0 it is almost impossible to focus (also see <em>Focus Shift<\/em> section) and at f\/1.4 it is super soft. In close focus scenarios I therefore often stopped down to at least f\/2.0.<\/p>\n<h2>Flare resistance<\/h2>\n<p>As always evaluating flare is a complex matter since you can get any lens to look bad if you push it hard enough and a slight change of scenario can affect results a lot. That being said, the super fast 50mm lenses often fared pretty bad in this category, so let&#8217;s see if this DJ-Optical 50mm 1.0 can improve on them.<\/p>\n<p><div class=\"osc-res-tab tabbable

longer focus distances. Here out of focus highlights towards the edges and corners take on rather distinct triangle shapes which definitely have the potential to take away attention from the actual subject. If you are bored with the smooth out of focus rendering of modern lenses you might also see this is a benefit though.<\/p>\n<p>At these distances also the color aberrations are a bit stronger, but contrast and resolution should still be good enough at f\/1.0 for most use cases where you would need such a fast aperture.<\/p>\n<p>In the following section we will compare the bokeh this DJ-Optical lens creates to the <a href=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/review-mr-ding-optics-50mm-1-1-noxlux-m\/\">Mr. Ding 50mm 1.1<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/review-slrmagic-50mm-0-95-hyperprime-lm\/\">SLRmagic 50mm 0.95 Hyperprime<\/a>.

\/><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n<h4>Observations<\/h4>\n<p>What can we learn from these comparisons?<\/p>\n<p>In Scene 1 we can see that the DJ-Optical has less issues with shooting in backlit situations than the other two, as it shows noticeably higher contrast here. This is the only scene where that was the case though. Looking at the bokeh crops we see that the Mr. Ding has the worst f\/Stop here and we als see that the SLRmagic has a slightly bigger f\/Stop &#8211; this was to be expected obviously. We also see that this DJ-Optical renders a slightly less smooth bokeh with more outlining.<\/p>\n<p>In Scene 2 &#8211; looking at the full pictures &#8211; we can see that the Mr. Ding creates the smoothest and least distracting bokeh &#8211; despite it having the worst f\/Stop of the three. Looking at the corner crops we see a strong tendency towards triangular highlights with the DJ-Optical, a slight tendency with the SLRmagic and much cleaner and less distracting corners from the Mr. Ding.<\/p>\n<p>Scene 3 shows similar results as Scene 2. Here I decided to show bokeh crops from the center of the frame, and we can again see strong outlining leading to almost a bubble bokeh from the DJ-Optical compared to perfectly smooth &#8211; almost as if an APD element was used &#8211; bokeh from the Mr. Ding with the SLRmagic being somewhere inbetween.<\/p>\n<p>In Scenes 4 and 5 I added crops from the focus point, to see if there are significant sharpness differences between these lenses and I can&#8217;t say I see a clear winner here. They all show different aberrations to a different degree and thinking about normal viewing distances I say those differens are negligible. The differences in bokeh rendering are much bigger and I also used Scene 4 for a blind test on our <a href=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/socialmedia\/\">Discord server<\/a> with more than 80% of the participants preferring the rendering of the Mr. Ding lens.<\/p>\n<p>If you prefer smooth and undistracting backgrounds that will likely push you towards the Mr. Ding lens. If you prefer a more structured or distinct bokeh the DJ-Optical might appeal to you more. The huge and unobtainable SLRmagic sits inbetween those.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Sunstars<\/h2>\n<p><div class=\"osc-res-tab tabbable   osc-tabs-left\"><div style=\"clear:both;width: 100%;\"><ul class=\"nav

I have also often talked about the limitations of the narrow M-mount when it comes to designing lenses with these parameters. These limitations do not only make these lenses difficult to design, but also lead to different designers deciding to make different compromises. These compromises can lead to lenses with the seemingly same parameters &#8211; 50mm and f\/1.0 &#8211; to create completely different pictures.<\/p>\n<p>What did DJ-Optical aim for with his design? In terms of size and weight this is definitely one of the more manageable super fast 50mm M-mount lenses. The contrast is also surprisingly high, even in backlit scenarios and astigmatism is well corrected at portrait distances. Due to strong Coma leading to those triangular out of focus highlights (especially at f\/1.0 and f\/1.4), the bokeh rendering of this lens is one of the most distinct I came across so far. It reminds me a lot of the <a href=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/review-canon-ef-50mm-1-0-l-usm-still-the-worlds-fastest-af-lens\/\">Canon EF 50mm 1.0L USM<\/a>, which creates similarly shaped out of focus highlights.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Whether you like this rather peculiar bokeh rendering or not, that is a personal question you have to answer for yourself. It definitely makes the pictures taken with this lens stand out though and this is not something I can say about a lot of lenses that are being released these days.<\/p>\n<p><em>you could only buy this lens directly from DJ-Optical in China, maybe in the future some used samples will surface on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ebay.de\/sch\/i.html?_nkw=dj+optical+50mm+1.0&amp;_sacat=0&amp;_from=R40&amp;_trksid=p4624852.m570.l1313&amp;mkcid=1&amp;mkrid=707-53477-19255-0&amp;siteid=77&amp;campid=5337820268&amp;toolid=20008&amp;mkevt=1\">ebay.com<\/a> (advertisement\/affiliate link)<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>Alternatives<\/h2>\n<p>I reviewed a lot of 50mm M-mount lenses all of which you can find listed <a href=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/lenses\/leica-lenses\/\">here<\/a>.
