p.15 #4 · p.15 #4 · Voigtländer Nokton Vintage Line 35/1.5 VM I & II and Nikon Z Apo-Lanthar 65/2 | |
These look great! For a 3.5cm long 35/1.5 lens I'll take it any day of the week. For those who don't care about size, the 35/1.7, ZM 35/1.4 and 35/2 APO still exist. There's no free lunch but the set of compromises Voigtlander have chosen for a highly portable fast 35 seem appropriate to me.

On LoCal: It’s just with acceptable limits to me for it being considered a decently corrected optic. Images #7 and #10 are absolute worse case scenario, and with the defringe tool in LR at 7 for both purple and green, it’s completely fixed. A weakness but manageable IMO in real world shooting. Given the similarity in the optical formula to the 35 1.2, I was not expecting good LoCal control. I think as you said, most of us are not surprised given Voight lander seems to favor lots of optical vignetting, so bokeh is what it is. The other 35/40/50 1.2 I could get busier bokeh at longer distance, esp in the corners.
The coma thing I am interested in and have a question for you as you will probably know better. I also noticed a type of blooming/oddity with OOF lights. But, when I did a more traditional coma test with stars, stars looked pretty good WO from corner to center on a modded sensor. If I get clearer skies tonight, I will shoot again but I feel like for astrophotography this one is usable (vignetting aside) like the 28/2ii. But if stars are fairly pinpoint, but out of focus lights are “bloomed,” is that coma or a different type of aberration? Or is it a specific type of coma (if there are types)? In photo #7, the loss of detail/clarity I assumed to be a little bit more of veiling issue.
These are all from a modded a7....Show more →
