Re: Best Voigtlander M-mount lenses for Leica and Sony sensors
I also prefer and keep the native E-mount versions (currently keeping 16 including all 5 discontinued models) of all available CV lenses apart from those that I parted with due to limited use (10/5.6, both Macro Apo-Lanthars, original 40/1.2 & 50/1.2 since I got the SE versions).
I've had a lot of the VM and LTM options too. The ones among those I've kept on M-mount that I find most unique and desirable from size and/or rendering perspective (even if some of them work better on digital M) are 75/1.9, 50/1.5 Heliar classic, 50/1.5 Nokton II, Color-Skopar 28/2.8. They all bring something appealing to the table that's not covered by available E-mount CV options either by being very compact or otherwise unique.
I also keep 40/2.8 VM (2 versions), 50/2 Heliar classic (prefer the current f1.5 version), 50/3.5 APO (I don't find it as exciting and unique although optically great), 3 LTMs: 28/1.9, 28/3.5, 75/2.5.
