Voigtlander Ultron 35mm f/1.7 Aspherical Overview

A favored focal length among street photographers and journalists, the black Ultron 35mm f/1.7 Aspherical Lens from Voigtlander is a standard wide-angle prime designed for use with M-mount rangefinder cameras. The versatile focal length is complemented by the fast f/1.7 maximum aperture, which benefits working in a variety of lighting conditions and also offers enhanced selective focus control. The lens construction incorporates a single aspherical element to reduce spherical aberrations and distortions for increased sharpness and clarity, and the ten-blade diaphragm helps to achieve a smooth, pleasing bokeh. This manual focus lens permits focusing as closely as 1.6' away and depth of field and distance scales aid in pre-focusing and zone focusing techniques.

Fast f/1.7 maximum aperture benefits working in low-light conditions and also enables greater control over focus position for selective focus applications.
One aspherical element is incorporated at the rear of the nine elements in seven groups construction, and helps to limit spherical aberrations and distortions.
Manual focus design enables a minimum focusing distance of 1.6', and it is rangefinder coupled for accurate focusing to 2.3'.
Ten-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing out-of-focus quality when working with shallow depth of field techniques.
As part of Voigtlander's Vintage Line of lenses, this lens features a black-colored aluminum finish to give it a classic appeal that is well-matched to classic rangefinder camera designs.
Compatible with optional LH-9B lens hood.

I have a m6 classic color way, does this match the camera? Or would the black look better?
Asked by: jacinto
It matches your camera mechanically. Is it the best color match? Well, that's in the eye of the beholder, but I think Silver sets off any colorway you put it on.
