Voigtlander 28mm f/2.0 Ultron Vintage

Can't be happier. It's an affordable alternative to lens. I'm not a pro and the slight vignetting wide open is fine with me.

Vintage Looks With Modern Sharpness

This lens in chrome looks like it's straight out of the '50s, but it's a modern design that's sharp and well suited to Leica rangefinders. I can attest that rangefinder calibration is perfect with my Leica M10, even wide open. The lens is overkill with my M10's sensor. I bought the Ultron used from B&H and I'm really happy with it.

Is its 36mm length measured from lens mount, or from the actual rear element (farther than lens mount)? Looks longer than 36mm.
Asked by: Magneto
Voigtlander 28mm f/2.0 Ultron Vintage Aspherical VM Lens Type II dimensions are calculated after the rear lens mount. If we messure the lens from its rear element, it will increase to 47mm.
