We don’t even know for certain that they’ll release the APO. That’s part of the point of the thread

Based on what they’ve released so far, it looks to me like they’re focusing on APO and very fast lenses, leaving out the slower, more compact lenses for now.

So my guess regarding most likely release (apart of the 28 APO) is 35mm and 50mm f/1.2

I think they may be releasing some wide one, 21mm in Z, it is needed.

Looking at this review of the Thypoch 21mm, I think it would be great if Cosina released the 21mm f1.4 in Z mount

Wait, what? I just bought a brand new V 40 1.2 last week. Should I have waited?

Where can I see info about the newer version?

EDIT: I found this:
https://www.cosina.co.jp/news/%e3%80%90cp2025%e3%81%ab%e3%81%a6%e5%b1%95%e7%a4%ba%e3%80%91%e3%82%b3%e3%82%b7%e3%83%8a%e5%8f%82%e8%80%83%e5%87%ba%e5%93%81%e8%a3%bd%e5%93%81%e3%81%ae%e3%81%94%e6%a1%88%e5%86%85/

So, I guess it's M mount only, but maybe a Z mount version will come later. A bit lighter weight would be nice.

Sony mirrorless shooters already have the Voigtlander 21/1.4, 50/1.2, and 110/2.5. My bet is we see those three as the next Voigtlanders for Nikon Z.

The 21 and 110 would definitely fill some gaps in the lineup. Not sure we need another 50 as urgently, since there are already two options (50/1 and 50/2).

I would really like a 35mm 1.2 and 50mm 1.2.

My fantasy choice: 25mm APO.

I am really hoping a 25mm APO is next after the 28mm APO. I would take a 21mm APO over a 25mm APO to go with the 28mm APO.... But 25mm APO is more realistic, and I would happily buy one.

28mm f/2 APO for the Z-mount and I would be very happy.

My fingers are already itching after reading Fred Miranda's review of the VM version.
But I don't really want to fiddle with an adapter, especially as the high-quality VM-Z adapters are anything but inexpensive.
The “peace of mind” solution from Cosina/Voigtlander, the VM-Z Close Focus Adapter with Heliocid, significantly increases the acquisition costs.
Furthermore with lenses such as the Apo Lanthar's, any hint of doubt about the optimum performance due to differences in the filter stack would be absolutely unsatisfactory/counter-productive.
Something that would always be in the back of my mind, so for me only native as a Z-mount.

A 25mm APO would propably be my most used lens.
