Voigtlander 50mm f3.5 Apo-Lanthar VM Type II Silver Lens

Ex-Demo Lens

Comes with Voigtlander Warranty

The Voigtlander 21mm f3.5 VM ASPH Vintage Line Color-Skopar Type II Lens is a newly designed compact super wide lens.

Main Features 

¦ Classical styling reminiscent of the 1970s

¦ Element with aspherical surfaces ensures excellent performance from maximum aperture

¦ Extremely solid and durable all-metal barrel

¦ Manual focus for precise focusing

¦ Aperture mechanism with 10 aperture blades for beautiful bokeh

¦ Bayonet type VM-mount

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.

With two aspherical surfaces, the new 50mm f1.5 II from Voigtlander could be one of their best 50mm lenses yet! An apparent vast improvement over the original 50mm f1.5 Nokton would take it into Leica territory, in terms of quality. Again, the new 50mm f1.5 II is all-metal construction lens, but with a smooth focusing ring (the 50mm f1.5 has a knurled ring). An interesting difference is that the new version is available in six different variations! A choice of Single or Multi-coated and three colour schemes (Black, Silver and Black Nickel)

The Voigtlander ULTRON Vintage Line 35mm F2 Aspherical VM II is a compact semi wide-angle lens with a new optical design consisting of 8 elements in 5 groups.

The optional LH-4N & LH-12 lens hoods manufactured from aluminum feature a bayonet mount for quick attachment / removal and crystal paint highly valued for its classical texture.

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.

Following the success of the E-Mount 40mm f1.2, here is the VM mount version. Optically the same as the E-Mount but slightly adjusted so it can be worked by both film and digital platforms.
