I’ve got the same Voigtlander 50mm APO f/2 for my Leica Ms. I also have the 35mm version - but in Nikon Z-mount for my Nikon Zf. I’ve contemplated swapping it for one in M-mount. Meanwhile… is my memory serving me correctly when I think I read you have (or once had) the TTartisan 50mm f/1.4 ASPH in M-mount? I still have that lens in my B&H wish list. $369. Any thoughts?
I owned the TTartisan 50mm f1.4 for the L mount for a while. It was heavy. The focusing ring was tight; uncomfortably so. The image quality was on par with a typical mid-90s 50mm lens for DSLRs. Not great wide open but fine by f4.0 to f5.6. I sold mine a couple of years ago and have not missed it. If you were asking I'd say: Pass.
