Is it time to give this lens another try?

A couple of years ago, after reading a number of reviews, watching as many YT videos as I could find, and following this thread here on FM I purchased the CV 40/1.2.

Long story-short...I never bonded with it so off it went.

Background: I own two Voigtlander's that bookend the CV 40mm - the APO 35 and APO 65. IMO, as primarily a landscape photographer it doesn't get any better than those two. Enter the CV 40mm and I couldn't find the proper niche for it in my kit. But yet, I love the outcome of so many of images posted here on this thread.

Is it time to give it another try?

Before I decide whether to buy another can I ask your opinion(s) on what you feel the main difference is between the APO 35 and CV 40mm? And what is the primary use for your CV 40mm - landscape, street, environmental...??

Thanks for future comments.


I have been using the 40/12. for a few years now and have posted a few images on the FM site. I cannot answer your question about the difference between the APO 35 and the CV40 but, in an album I created for the CV40 on my Flickr account you can see the type oh photos I have been shooting with the CV 40.
