Voigtlander 28mm f2 VM Ultron VintageLine ASPH TypeII Silver

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 Voigtlander 75mm F1.9 ULTRON VM is a manual focus medium telephoto lens optimized for full-frame M mount sensors. The newly designed optics consists of 7 elements in 5 groups, 3 of which are made of cutting-edge partial-dispersion glass technology, which both suppresses chromatic aberration and ensures high image quality.

The balance between bokeh and resolution has been optimized by deliberately leaving a moderate amount of spherical aberration. While maintaining the clarity of the image areas which are in focus, the out-of-focus area produces a rich and large bokeh effect.

The new but simple construction allows all the elements to move in tandem, resulting in an overall length of only 54.1 mm, which is extremely compact for a 75mm lens. The lens thus offers excellent portability and also suppresses vignetting in the frame when used on rangefinder cameras. This lens is equipped with a high-precision rangefinder-coupled mechanism, and the full-metal helicoid ring provides a silky smooth luxurious focus.

The Multi Coated version of the lens is finished in Matte black paint

The minimum focusing distance is 0.5m, allowing extremely close focus, beyond even many rangefinder mechanically-linked focus-ranges.

The Voigtlander 50mm f3.5 APO-LANTHAR Type II is an extremely high performance manual focus standard lens optimized for full frame VM mount cameras. The apochromatic design thoroughly eliminates chromatic aberration on axis and other aberrations, while pursuing ultimate performance in terms of resolution and contrast reproduction. While adopting a maximum aperture of F3.5, the lens is composed of eight elements in six groups, four of which are made of anomalous partial dispersion glass to achieve uncompromising optical performance.

The lens combines ultimate optical performance with easy handling and classic vintage rangefinder lens styling. As a tribute to classic rangefinder lenses that appeared in the mid 20th century, the more expensive vintage style straight slot screw heads were chosen instead of less expensive modern Phillips head.

Equipped with a high precision rangefinder controlled mechanism, and the silky feel of the all metal helicoid allowing the photographer to experience the true joy of focusing using a traditional rangefinder. The minimum focusing distance of the Type II is 0.35m by adopting a helicoid with a lens rotation angle of 300 degrees, which is rangefinder coupled as close as 0.7m (depending upon camera capability).

A mechanism is provided to recognize the junction point of the rangefinder linked range by a clicking sensation during focusing operation. The Type II filter size is φ39mm, a popular filter size for rangefinder cameras. Two versions of Type II are available: a silver version with a heavy feel using brass materials (body weight: 250 g) and a black painted model with a lighter weight by using aluminium materials in some parts (body weight: 175 g). The silver model has a metal hood in the same color as the main body and a black metal cap with a pear finish, while the black model has a black paint in the same color as the lens body.

The Voigtlander COLOR-SKOPAR 28mm F2.8 Aspherical L39 is a high-performance wide-angle lens focused on light handling for rangefinder cameras.
