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 HELIAR classic 50mm F1.5 VM is finished to show classical depiction at the wide open apertures by the aberrations that intentionally remained. The Heliar Classic is measured by a different yard stick. Heliar images are about classic style.

This image effect is painterly or even "more fluffy" than images made by modern lenses. By leaving some factors of aberration, both coma and spherical, we create a different image flavor than contemporary images made in digital post-processing. Not every subject demands maximum sharpness and saturation, some require a more delicate touch. Our optical formula is like a hand reaching back in time.

This look cannot be obtained with modern lenses that over correct for various aberrations. In addition to the superior bokeh the remaining frame flare and single coated finish provide an extremely unique palette at wide open aperture settings.

The NEW Voigtlander APO-Lanthar 50mm f/2 Aspherical lens for Leica M-Mount cameras is based on the Sony E-Mount version released last year (2020), and has been optimised for full-frame M-mount sensors. Voigtlander only gives the APO-Lanthar title to high-performance products, those with ?outstanding imaging performance?.

Optically the lens is constructed of 10 elements in eight groups, with two abnormally dispersed glass elements and two double-sided aspherical lenses along with a floating mechanism. This produces perfectly circular bokeh wide open and also closed down as far as f/5.6 thanks to its 12-bladed diaphragm. The apochromat design produces the ?ultimate performance? in regards resolution and contrast.

This high performance apochromatic lens reduces axial chromatic aberration to close to zero. Abnormal Partial Dispersion glass is used in 6 out of 8 elements for very high optical performance. The compact design reduces lens length to only 63.3mm.

Vignetting has been kept to a minimum. 12 aperture blades keep the aperture close to a circular shape for beautiful bokeh. The synergistic effect of the long focal length and large F2 aperture produces large background blurring for photographic expression.

Black or Silver finishes are available. A dedicated reversible metal lens hood is included for convenient storage and transportation.

The Apo-Skopar 90mm F2.8 VM is a manual focus medium focal length telephoto lens optimised for full frame M mount sensors. The newly designed optical system uses Abnormal Partial Dispersion glass for 5 out of 7 elements in 7 groups to make your images rich, three dimensional in character and super sharp!

In addition to high image quality, the apochromatic design makes axial chromatic aberration as close to zero as possible. This lens is also very light, at only 250g. The 90mm is only 60mm in length & due to its small stature, it does not protrude into the viewfinder frame when used on a rangefinder camera.
