How is the focus travel on those manual Voight lenses? I’m thinking of an X-Pro2 with the 35/2 Voightlander accompany my X100F which I use in MF most of the time. I shot a Leica M8 with Voightlander and Leica glass ages ago and while I’d love an M240 or M262, I can’t justify the cost. Looking for that MF experience with the rangefinder style. Trying to slow things down around here.
It's similar to the newer close focus Voigtlander Leica lenses, if you've tried those.
One hundred percent of manual focus lens shooters will tell you that manual focusing is faster than autofocus, and it is true in many cases. So, what exactly are planning to slow down here?
I did not like a very short travel distance on CV 18/2.8 for X system. Your useful range of movement outside of closeup is like 2mm (I don't know the real number, but it is short). But I just love CV 35/2 and 50/2 for Nikon Z, for example.
