Is the voigtl nder nokton 55mm f 1 2 sl iis hard to focus manually?

The site doesn't rate how hard this lens is to focus, but the spec page confirms it's manual focus only, with no autofocus. At f/1.2 the depth of field is very thin, so you'll need to place the focus precisely, especially up close or on moving subjects. Expect a slower, more deliberate shooting style than with an autofocus lens.

If you want to try manual focus without committing, the Lenses guide covers adapting old manual lenses. For the Nokton itself, see the Voigtländer Nokton 55mm f/1.2 SL IIs page for the cameras it fits.
