Re: Original Voigtlander Nokton 50mm f/1.5 (Prominent 1951-1960)
Interesting to see these. I went to work for the photo dept of a big chemical company on 1963, amongst the medium and large format stuff in the cupboard there was a Prominent with the 1.5 Nokton. Not much use to us, it had apparently been bought so one of the reseatch scientists could nake use of the good (for its tome) f/1.5 for a bit of industrial espionage!
Just a small point, I think from memory the Cosina Voigtlander version first appeared in LTM with their first batch of lenses, in the 1990s. I didn't buy one, but I did buy two of the others 25mm f/4 and the 15mm 4.5 (which I still have).
