Pros: Weight, personality, micro-contrast when standing on 2.8, off-plan even if closed. 1 or 2 stops, cost, versatility, size.

Cons: Build quality, edges up to 2.8, blurred quality for some looking softness.

Opinion: Taken to really.. 2 lire.. Before I blasphed for a ridiculous rendition on my a7r3.. It went from mighty to crappy on very simple shots. Then I.. Got the Voigtlander adapter.. Close up and.. Screwed in front and rear lens (if I was moving I felt TAC TAC). He's been a surgeon ever since. A. 1.4 is soft. At 1.6 The center becomes good and the edges seem less nervous. At 2.8 it becomes sharp and very micro-contrasty in the center maintaining a remarkable detachment at medium distance... Uqasi good edges on 42mpx se to infinity. At F4 it pulls off almost like 2.8.. And it's sharp. Much and 3d. At 5.6 It becomes an infinity blade. A F8 on tripod at night moves for surrender and Stellati. I'm just saying I had the 50 art.. Excelled. But flat. Obviously it went 2 times better but in the portraits at 2.8 this detached and so much more. I sold the 50 art for the surrender of this united to the weight.. And I wait for the TechArt... Focal length from 40 mm that if you get used to it is over.. That little shorter than 50 for reportage.. That little bit longer than 35 to make less deformed portraits.. Recommended and remember.. To be used only on Leica and Sony with BSI that have no problems at the edges.

Pros: High sharpness from f / 2.3 onwards, blurred, colors, atmosphere; Very compact

Cons: Wanting to rush there is a TA too little vignetting and a bit too soft. Minimal focus a bit long.

Opinion: Beautiful voigtlander lens I bought when I also had summicron-c 40, then resold because the f / 2 performance is almost indistinguishable. It has a particular rendering, its character that gives the atmosphere to the photos. Natural colors but saturated, no excessive contrast with shadows that are not closed as in standard lenses. The photos are very "plastic", both on film and on the sensor. The transition between fire zones is not sweet and progressive.

Pros: Ready blur, open shadows, compactness.

Cons: Vignette pronounced, construction not free from serious faults, front and back focus at various aperture ranges on the rangefinder.

Opinion: Small, compact and light. The blur is legible, the contrast is there but the shadows are not very closed. The blur is particular, but progressive and readable in the shadows. Good in backlight even though only single coating.rn Vignetting is strong to the most open diaphragms, closing down a lot but a hair will always be followed by it. RnResa unique and for many, other lenses so find it fatigued.rn the only real flaw Is in the construction, which by so many problems (solvable in the house but scoch) the helix has the lubricant that with time tends to dry out, making the toughest and sizzling focus, were 20 years, not a few years. The diaphragm ring is held by a bronze ring that can be pressed out of the seat by pressure (often happens). It opens and comes back, but just puts it under construction, the truncated lenses and the pupil tend to shake. Another known defect is that the rangefinder has front or back focus in a non-regular way.

Pros: Dimensions, construction, quality / price ratio unsurpassed, "spangle" magnificent lights at small apertures.

Cons: Low contrast images with large openings, especially blurry.

Opinion: A great lens to keep attached to the car. Beautiful progressivity of blurry though particularly in its yield. Very good sharpness from f/2.8. At large apertures gives a pleasant look to "film" the photos. As already mentioned, the construction is impeccable and the maf manual very fast thanks to a ring very Leica style.
