 Re: Voigtlander 50mm f/1 Nokton Review | |
I love my 50mm f/1, but I have two gripes (one of which isn't really a gripe, but an admission of personal limitation):
1. It is incredibly hard to nail focus with a rangefinder. I recently picked up a Light Lens Lab 1.4x focus magnifier/diopter and that seems to help a little. This point should be obvious. Still, when I can actually hit correct focus it makes the missed shots worth it.
2. My copy developed play in the focus guide (?) very soon after purchase. I sent it back to the seller for warranty repair. They returned the lens to me exactly as it was with no explanation or repair of the issue. Now having a third party service take a look at it.
At any rate, here are some of my shots on film:
