If this version has less copy variation I am so getting another 40/1.2.
I'd not heard about Voigt copy variation. Is this specific to the 40 1.2?
CV has traditionally been associated with high copy variation and service problems.
They were never on the same plane as Zeiss despite being manufactured by the same company.
They cost less but you got less.
The general opinion is that they company has really "upped its game" in recent years but I do not know the extent of that change.
The line is very popular here so that seems a good endorsement.
I have two CV; they seem to be good copies.
I don't think it is true that Cosina Voigtlander (CV) has traditionally been associated with high copy variation and service problem. I say they are typical for camera manufacturers not better not worse. In addition to building the Voigtlander lenses, Cosina also builds/build the Zeiss Loxia lenses, and the ZE/ZF/ZF.2 lenses, and maybe the Milvus lenses.
