Two new Voigtländer lenses for Leica M-mount: Ultron 35mm f/2 and Color-Skopar 21mm f/3.5


Voigtländer had two prototype Leica M-mount lenses on display at Photokina:

  • Voigtländer Ultron 35mm f/2 Aspherical VM lens: minimum focusing distance is 0.58m, filter size is 39mm, 10 diaphragm blades
  • Voigtländer  Color-Skopar 21mm f/3.5 Aspherical VM lens: (ultra compact classic design): minimum focusing distance is 0.50m, filter size is 39mm, 10 diaphragm blades

There is no additional information on those lenses (via Dpreview).

Update – here are some details (thanks Licheus):

  • 8 Elements in unknown groups with aspherical element.
  • 0.58m close focus, coupled to 0.7m.
