4.0 out of 5 stars Fine 35mm lens for Leica Screw and M Mount rangefinders, July 14, 2005

This review is from: Voigtlander Ultron 35mm f/1.7 Aspherical Wide Angle Manual Focus Lens - Silver (Electronics)

The Voigtlander Ultron 35mm f1.7 aspherical wide angle lens offers at a reasonable price similar optical performance which Leica users have had to pay over a thousand dollars for. I have seen test reports where this lens is rated to perform as well as the last non-aspherical lens element Leica 35mm f2 Summicron lens. In practical terms unless you have to photograph constantly wide open, you won't notice any difference between this lens and the current, expensive 35mm f2 ASPH Summmicron-M lens. Leica M mount rangefinder users will have to purchase a screw to M mount adaptor to mount this lens onto their cameras.
