The Voigtlander COLOR-SKOPAR 28mm F2.8 Aspherical VM is a high-performance wide-angle lens focused on light handling for rangefinder cameras. The latest optical design and aspherical lens elements maintain the same optical performance as our Voigtländer ULTRON Vintage Line 28mm F2 Aspherical VM, while keeping the maximum aperture at F2.8 to achieve extreme portability.
Type I has a nostalgic appearance thanks to the use of a rotating helicoid system, and a brass lens exterior. It is available in black paint and silver finishes.
All models have extremely compact exteriors, and the lenses combine the mobility of a rangefinder camera with the beautiful design of a snap-shooter. The optical system consists of 8 elements in 5 groups, including one double-sided aspheric lens. The lens has been optimized for use with rangefinder-linked digital and film cameras.
The overall length of the product from the mount surface is limited to a short 14mm, the main body weight is only 99g, and it boasts the mobility of a snap shooter, which is a characteristic of rangefinder cameras. It features a simple lens configuration of 6 elements in 4 groups, including one double-sided aspherical lens and three elements of anomalous partial dispersion glass, producing outstanding images.
The accessory metal hood is designed to be integrated with the aperture control ring of the lens and is equipped with an aperture indicator line when mounted. To avoid increasing the overall length of the lens when used with this hood, a special thin frame filter is also included, with a thickness of 1.1 mm from the lens filter thread. The lens cap is machined and the hood cap is made of deep drawn metal. In addition to the beautiful exterior design of the lens itself, these tasteful accessories provide not only photographic pleasure but also the pride of ownership.
The minimum focusing distance is 0.7m. The lens has a covered focusing helical not seen in vintage lenses with this style of rotating helicoid and is designed so that the helicoid is
not exposed to the outer lens barrel even when shooting at the minimum distance, making it resistant to dust and other external environment conditions. The focus lever is equipped with an infinity position lock mechanism like vintage lenses, which is useful when operating the aperture ring or attaching and detaching the lens.
Note: The black finish mount will not be recognized when used with a camera equipped with a system that reads 6-bit encoding. Set lens detection to OFF.

The optional LH-11 lens hood manufactured from aluminium feature a bayonet mount for quick attachment / removal and crystal paint highly valued for its classical texture.
The NOKTON Vintage Line 35mm F1.5 Aspherical is a regular use lens for rangefinder cameras with a large aperture. Still, the filter diameter is kept to φ39mm and the overall length of the product is short at 36mm, giving it a tight, compact portability.
The lens barrel, with a modern classic design, is equipped with a 6-group, 9-element optical system featuring two double-sided aspheric lenses, which provide excellent optical performance at all apertures.
The minimum focusing distance is 0.5m, shorter than the 0.7m linked to the rangefinder (depending on the camera to which it is attached).
Two styles are available: First, there is Type I, made of aluminum and weighing 188g having both light weight and maximum portability. Also offered is Type II, made of brass and weighing 284g for a sturdy and substantial feeling, with a finish choice of either black or silver.
The optional hoods LH-4N with slits and LH-12 classic style are both compatible.
The COLOR SKOPAR 50mm F2.2 is a manual focus standard lens optimized for full size VM mount sensors. Cosina lens designers succeeded in reducing the exterior lens barrel length to only 30mm, despite this being a 50mm F2.2 standard lens.
High performance optics using 7 elements in 6 groups including 3 elements of anomalous partial dispersion glass achieve excellent optical performance even wide open at F2.2. It is possible to focus beyond the minimum rangefinder distance of 0.7 m and up to 0.5 m with the interlocking of the rangefinder. It is effective when shooting with a camera equipped with a live view function.
It comes with a compact, straight-type hood that is shaped so that it does not obstruct the rangefinder camera rangefinder window.
