Stylish in appearance, exacting in performance, the silver Voigtlander Nokton 50mm f/1.5 Aspherical II MC is a sleek normal-length prime M-mount lens distinguished by its speed and classic rendering. The bright f/1.5 maximum aperture suits working in low-light conditions and also enables greater control over depth of field for isolating subjects using selective focus. The optical design includes one double-sided aspherical element, which helps to deliver high sharpness and low distortion by suppressing a variety of aberrations. This lens also features a multi-coating to suppress lens flare and ghosting for improved contrast and color fidelity when working in strong lighting conditions. Its manual focus design permits working with subjects as close as 2.3' away and a 12-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality to suit working with shallow depth of field.

Voigtlander Nokton 50mm f/1.5 Aspherical II M... Overview
As part of Voigtlander's Vintage Line of lenses, this lens features a classic silver finish to give it a classic appeal, reminiscent of historic Voigtlander lenses, that is well-matched to classic rangefinder camera designs.
Fast f/1.5 maximum aperture helps control depth of field for shallow depth of field shooting, and also benefits working in difficult lighting conditions.
One large-diameter, double-sided aspherical element is incorporated at the rear of the optical construction and helps to limit spherical aberrations and distortions.
Multi-layer coating produces vivid yet accurate colors along with high contrast and saturation, making it well-suited for general shooting applications.
Manual focus design enables a minimum focusing distance of 2.3'.
A 12-blade diaphragm contributes to a smooth and pleasing bokeh quality.
Compatible with optional LH-6 lens hood.

Who can repair these M-mount Voigtlander lenses, in or out of warranty? Most Leica repair people won't work on them.
To avoid mentioning repair shops here, ask your question in the Reddit r/Leica forum. Most Leica repair shops (contrary to what you say) do work on them. I know; I dropped one from three meters onto earth ground and a very well known shop in Cleveland worked on it.
