Another inexpensive keeper. I like it. Especially, and unexpectedly, on the Leica SL.

Some additional examples of photographs from the 75mm f1.9 Voigtlander lens for the M mount. Just to add more subject choices...

it's the 2.8 they've got going cheap here, the same branch has at least 4 or 5 different m mount zeiss lenses of the same type and price range, they're vintage style designs, i'll just paste some names in from the listing
ReplyDeleteZeiss C Sonnar T* 1.5/50 ZM Silver Ex Demo
Zeiss Biogon T* 2.8/25 ZM
Zeiss Biogon T* 2/35
etc, they've got a 28 as well, all ex demo in both black and silver, I've only come across one leica owner out and about with camera in that city, he was mostly just carrying his camera in one hand and not taking pictures, sneered at me when I smiled at him, pretty funny ;) the joys of mid range gear, I'm either some disgusting poor person or an appalling high roller depending on the viewers perception of the fuji x mounts ;)
I went to martin parrs book fair and there was one guy with that huge 24-90 wandering about as well, couldn't believe the size of it, once again he wasn't taking pictures, I think I've seen the most leica's at martin parr foundation, people just kind of sit with them in their lap during events...
Kirk,
ReplyDeleteDo you have a M-mount to gfx adapter?
The SC version of this lens looks nice on a gfx camera:

Chan has tested many lenses on the GFX 50R camera.
Hi David, I hadn't thought about the 75mm on the GFX but I do have an adapter and just attached the lens. There's little bit of corner vignetting but not as bad as most other 35mm lens designs. If it doesn't rain this afternoon I might head out and take some photos with it. Thanks1
