Looks really great, Fred.
It seems one can't go wrong with any of the CV 65/2, CV 110/2.5 or the Batis 135/2.8.
I consider the 65/2 a different FL but CV 110 vs Batis 135....well..
The Batis has AF but the Voigtlander has yammy mechanical MF and can do 1:1 Macro. Both are superb APO lenses. Perhaps lenses for different applications.
I prefer the Voigtlander colors though. I didn't really test OOF rendering but they should yield about the same blur quantity.
Yea its going to come down to what you need here. I need the AF and i rarely shoot macro work so for me the Batis 135 makes sense plus im not going to lose my shirt on selling it. I paid full price, if anything the Sigma 105 has more my interest.
Not sure i could get along with just 3 AF lenses for paid work 24,50,105. Thats a little skimpy
I can see a lot of folks going: 21/40/110...Perfect trio spacing going from super wide to telephoto...but as you wrote, may not be ideal for paid work depending on the job.
This is what I'm doing - Laowa 15/2, Loxia 21/2.8, CV 40/1.2, CV 110/2.5. Nice gapping and premium IQ.
I kept the CV 65/2 as it makes a really nice 2 lens set (with macro) paired with the Sony 24 GM.
