A high repetition rate (~MHz) and high brightness photoinjector, based on VHF band CW normal conducting (NC) RF gun, is being developed under Advanced Photoinjector EXperiment (APEX) at Lawrence Berkeley Lab. A NC 30 MeV L-band linac system will be added after the gun to demonstrate beam brightness with lower repetition rate (~10 Hz). In this paper, coupler kicks from APEX buncher and acceleration cavities are evaluated by 3D RF simulation, analytical model and beam tracking, and coupler cells are optimized to minimize emittance dilution due to coupler kicks.
