7Artisans will soon release a new 35mm f/2.8 lens for L39 screw mount (LTM/Leica thread mount):
Focal Length: 35mm
Maximum Aperture: f/2.8
Optical Construction: 7 elements in 5 groups – classic double-Gauss structure (modern coatings for high-definition sharpness while retaining vintage character and flare resistance)
Mount: Leica M bayonet with native dual L39/M39 screw-mount compatibility
Focus Type: fully rangefinder-coupled
Minimum Focus Distance: 0.7 m
Dimensions: Ultra-slim, only 20 mm thick
Weight: 88 g (one of the lightest full-frame M-mount lenses available)
The front nameplate ring does not rotate during focusing (major usability improvement over classic Elmar-style lenses)
Lens Hood: Comes with two different hoods included
Filter Support: exact thread size not yet listed
Build & Aesthetic: All-metal retro/vintage styling inspired by golden-era rangefinder lenses (Leica Elmar influence)
Price (approximate at launch): ~2330 RMB / $325 USD (very affordable third-party option)
The lens is currently being tested

This lens looks similar to Voigtlander Color-Skopar 35mm F3.5 except the mount is different (screw mount). Would like to know how these two lenses compare.

The optical circuits are different. Voigtlander has 6/4 and 7Artisans has 7/5
