Selling my Voigtlander 35mm f/1.7 Ultron Like New In Box. (rating 10)
After acquiring the Leica 35/1.4 FLE, I have not used the Voigtlander 35/1.7 much. In my opinion, it's superior to the Leica in terms of resolution, contrast and even rendering but I prefer the Leica haptics and focus tab.
This copy was cherry-picked and it's perfectly centered and aligned with the rangefinder. For those using Leica M bodies, I have added 6-bit code so the lens shows as "Leica 35/1.4 Summilux ASPH." but this can be easily removed if requested.
I guarantee you won't find a better copy than this one and it's in like new condition. Only used a few times.
Comes with all original accessories in original box (see images)
Price is $675 with free shipping in the USA.

Any sample images? Reviews of this lens are scarce
I went through 3 or 4 copies of this lens. I wanted to compare it to the Leica 35/1.4 FLE which at the time I had just purchased and this Voigtlander copy was the only one that was perfectly calibrated with the RF and 100% centered.
Here is an infinity comparison to the Leica 35/1.4 FLE which I still own: (Both lenses at f/1.7)
In summary, it's sharper than the Leica at center and way sharper at mid-field even with the Leica stopped down to f/1.7. In terms of resolution and contrast, it's a marvel while rendering is also smoother in comparison (Also way smoother than the new Voigtlander 35/2 Ultron).
My only grip with it is that it does not have a focus tab and I enjoy using one with a 35mm lens when shooting with my M10. The Leica 35/1.4 FLE's rendering is not too far behind so I kept it.
