Mine was too expensive? I find this lens very difficult to sell...


Sorry Benjamin. I didn't see it. Anyway, the one I bought on you-know-where was about the same price.

Got a Pentax 50/1.4 Super-Multi-Coated about 2 weeks ago for use on my 5DII. Nice lens with crazy shallow DOF, though not in love with the adapter setup. My first M42 lens (i have 3 C/Y's), and still getting used to the aperture ring not being centered on the camera.

Just picked up a C/Y Zeiss 28mm f/2.8 and that completes my initial kit for switching to FF. Three landscape oriented lenses C/Y Zeiss 28mm f/2.8, C/Y mount 50mm f/1.4, and Leica R 90mm f/2.8; and three portrait oriented lenses Minolta MD Rokkor 35mm f/1.8, Minolta MC Rokkor 58mm f/1.2, and Nikon AI 105mm f/2.5. Plus a Minolta MD APO Rokkor 400mm f/5.6 for long tele work. I am quite happy with this setup for now.

I must give my thanks to mpmendenhall, without his recommendation on this very thread, I wouldn't have found the Voigtlander 180/4 APO-LANTHAR that just arrived from FM's freaklikeme last night and in to my hands

Pardon the horrible focus stacking on the photo.

It was exactly what I was looking to supplement my ZE collection, which stops at 100mm at the moment. Compact, high-quality, all-metal and simply beautiful.

Luka - very nice collection of 50's you have there.

kiddik - that Voigtlander looks great. It looks fairly small (like it would be a good
match with my Panasonic GH2). Just wondering how big it really is?

One of my latest purchases pushing my poor old MIR 26b out of the frame.
Shot with another recent purchase, an OM Zuiko 50 f/1.4.

Yours looks like it needs "a license to shoot"! I want one!

Click here to see a size comparison of Voigtlander 180/4 against Zeiss ZE 50/1.4 if that helps, that Voigt is unbelievably small being a 180mm, it would be very handy streetshooting if it wasn't so pretty, blingblingbling

After reading Lloyd Chambers review and looking at his images from the Zeiss 35/1,4 lens a second time. Then I ordered the Zeiss ZE 35/2 I found a very good price on it and the ZE 50 MP.
