Pros: Resolution, Colors, Structure, Price

Cons: nothing

Opinion: I've been a Leica enthusiast for over 40 years, but not the usual old-fashioned old-fashioned one, and well integrated into digital systems. I have a good eye after evaluating hundreds of Leica lenses over time. With the Voight I was always a bit skeptical, the first waves of M-mount lenses always had some shortcomings, excessive contrast, sometimes indomitable colors, and except for a few pearls that were already interesting at the time they did not particularly tickle me, in practice they were cheap but also inferior alternatives. Recently I've been looking for solutions that aren't particularly demanding (I don't like to ride with tens of thousands of euros around my neck, and I don't need to show off the latest model) and to this end on a nice M240 I tried a bit of all the modern voights. This 35mm is one of those that particularly amazed me... Wonderfully progressive up to F4.0 and already razor-sharp without being rude even at full aperture, excellent colors even with very little light, it has a technically perfect rendering up to the most extreme edge (a previous comment talks about field curvature that I absolutely do NOT find, it is perhaps the lens that has made it more flat than ever tried... maybe it's a compatibility problem with Sony bodies) however it produces an attractive and brilliant image, in my opinion superior to the summicron M asph from all points of view. I see on the net photos worked in a very aggressive way and in my eyes too impressive taken with this lens... It can be used in this way, but also in a more realistic way almost to the point of creating delicate images. Really nice lens !

Pros: A very sharp lens, small light but bright, the 10-bladed diaphragm allows you to turn any light source into a star already starting from very open diaphragms. Produced for demanding Leica users, it is proposed with quite high standards.

Cons: Manual focus? If you can consider it a 'con', but are going to come out the Techart rings that turn it into autofocus (we'll see). He's suffering from field warp.

Opinion: Having the need to use on my Sony A7r2, a lightweight but bright 35, I opted for this gorgeous little gem. I own a wonderful 35 Art that by weight and footprint, completely frustrates the use of an ML.... Unlike other Voitglanders for Leica M this is a modern lens, the problems of the proximity of the rear lens to the sensor are less relevant, and with the sensor of the A72r are resolved, it suffers from a certain curvature of the field, when it focuses at full opening you have to be careful where you place the subject is sealing on that, if you focus in the center and then recompose you risk to go wrong. In my humble opinion it has a very good bokeh and a decent three-dimensional effect. I use a comfortable Voitglander adapter ring (125g) that allows you to decrease the minimum focus distance, from the nominal 0.50 the door to about 0.20. Recently I also use it in autofocus with the Techart Pro ring and it works great. I tried to compare it also with the legendary Voitglander Nocton 35 1.2 but then I preferred this for the well-known reasons of weight and footprint, as well as a better yield to t.a.
