I picked up a Sigma 105/2.8 OS for use on my GFX100S, and have taken it out a few times now. It works pretty well on the GFX, I'll say.
Thanks! Nice X-pan shot… I love the aspect ratio; it’s challenging to frame a shot nicely. I like the strip of shoreline leading us into the distant houses.
Ooooh does the Voigtländer APO-Lanthar-Macro 125/2.5 cover the whole 44x33mm sensor ?
Unfortunately they are very expensive on the used market, but maybe Cosina gives us another batch of them. They gave us the 28/2.8 again, after all, too.

It certainly is a nice lens but with the newer 110mm f/2.5 macro (available for Sony, but could probably be made for Nikon Z and Canon R easily enough) I doubt very much they will remake the older lens.

Thanks! It's one of my favourite things about the GFX system.

It does at infinity, but some vignetting occurs at close focus.

I think you're right Steve, I'd be surprised if Cosina started producing these SLR lenses again... But maybe, just maybe they will engineer something for mirrorless medium format. One can hope!!

Pentax smc Takumar [6-element] 135/2.5 full covers gfx sensor,no vigneting at close or infinity, contrasty and sharp from f2.5. jpeg from camera.

Sure, but is it APO or does it do 1:1?
for apo or macro im use GF120 lens. for 1:1 use macro adapter or 72mm canon close 250D up filter. for bokeh takumar simply outperforms your cv125 in every way and weight only 450gr. im sold cv125 many years ago and never looked back

Noted. I still use Canon SLR's and DSLR's, so the Lanthar is staying. I've had it for 13 years, and I still quite like it.
I need/want both dslr and mirrorless systems. I doubled down with two 5dsr's and two gfx100s's. I'm not one that feels the need to upgrade often and I think the recent offerings are so good, next improvements will be very incremental.
