More and more my kit is simply a Z7 with a VM trio: 21/4, 28/2 and 40/1.2. (And often the CV 125/2.5 for the reach shots.) I see that Cosína will release the new 75/1.5... I’ll be looking closely for the reviews, at least until used copies start circulating.

I guess I will take the 40mm over the 50mm.

21 - 40 - 110

I want to change my whole line up. It's just a "hobby" and I dont wanna carry big lenses like the Sony 35 1.4 or 85 1.4. So I thought about the voigtländer lenses. But I don't if I shall take the 40 1.2 or 50 1.2

Would like to combine it with the Voigtländer 21 3.5 + 110 2.5 Macro.

So many problems


Just keep in mind the voigtländer lenses are not that big but still heavy.

21mm - 230g
40mm - 420g

That's absolutely fine for travel days

The 110mm macro is sth about 770g but I dont carry such a lens everyday with me

The upcoming 75/1.5 would a perfect fit. Might become as my kit: 21,40,75 and 110.

oh, there will be a 75mm? :o that would be awesome. I dont't wanna get 2 Macros (65+110). Im not rich

Atm I have the Leica 60mm 2.8 Macro. Got it for 150€ that's good enough until I get the other lenses

Lot's of good choices. Love the 65/2. I wonder if the 75 will be more of a portrait/character type lens rather than being great across the frame for landscape or whether it will sharpen up like the 40 and 50/1.2 lenses do....

Although the 65 is called a macro, it functions beautifully in non macro images. In fact, I shoot it in non macro images more often than macro.

I never thought I would try another lens without AF. MF lenses just aren't my style..or so I thought.

This lens is really fun to shoot. Yes, it's challenging to nail perfect focus on subjects that move, but that's what makes it so much fun.

Time will tell if it will stay in the bag, but I'm going to have some fun with it while I have it.

More family photos with the CV40. Trip to the beach for father's day. I'm really loving this lens. I have a wedding next Saturday, and while FE35 1.4 is still normal FOV workhorse, the CV40 will get the nod for posed shots.

These are all beautiful pictures especially the children! I love the last two the best ... more natural and less posing.

Regards,
Joe

Looks like you got bokeh problems because of EFCS. Try to turn it off when using fast shutter speeds and large apertures, and the bokeh balls won't look like half moons.
