We recently got our hands on the newly released Voigtlander 35mm f2 Ultron, part of Voigtlander’s Vintage line from our friends at Camera Quest! Small, extremely well built with a decently fast max aperture, we wanted to test its basic sharpness and bokeh rendering against some other heavy hitters. These lens included: Leica 35mm f2 Summicron Ver. 2, Voigtlander 35mm f1.7 Ultron, Voigtlander 40mm f1.2 Nokton, the classic Minolta 40mm f2 Rokkor, Zeiss 50mm f1.5 Sonnar, Voigtlander 50mm f1.5 Nokton, Voigtlander 28mm f2 Ultron and of course the Voigtlander 35mm f2 Ultron. We used a Leica SL, with Leica M to L-mount adapter, as well as a consistent Daylight white balance, ISO 200 and we tried to keep exposures similar via similar shutter speeds per f-stop. Shot at a local brewery, below are some examples to explore and a link to all of the files! Please note each file name corresponds to the lens used and at what aperture.
