Voigtlander Nokton 35mm f/1.5 VM ASPH Type II Vintage Line Lens Silver Summary
Adding to a comprehensive existing range of VM lenses is this Voigtlander Nokton 35mm f/1.5 VM ASPH Type II Vintage Line Lens Silver. The highly portable prime lens, with a slightly wide 35mm focal length is ideal for all sorts of subjects from street photography and travel, to portraits and landscapes.
An all-metal brass construction in silver finish complements any digital or film Leica rangefinder and is equally at home on other mirrorless cameras, when using the appropriate lens converter from Voigtlander.
An advanced optical design includes two double sided aspherical elements which render excellent results, with fine detail at any aperture setting. The aperture diaphragm consists of a 12-bladed design fro beautiful bokeh and wide maximum f/1.5 aperture. This gathers light even during extremely dark situations and allows you to separate the subject with a shallow depth of field.
A compact 39mm lens filter thread enables the addition of affordable filters, while a close 0.5m minimum focusing distance offers extended versatility and is shorter than the 0.7m linked to the rangefinder (depending on the attached camera).

Voigtlander Nokton 35mm f/1.5 VM ASPH Type II Vintage Line Lens Silver in More Detail
The NOKTON Vintage Line 35mm F1.5 Aspherical is a slightly wide-angle interchangeable lens from Voigtländer, designed exclusively for the full-size chip VM mount.
This lens combines three characteristics, which are its small size, excellent optical performance, as well as a large aperture. As a standard lens on rangefinder cameras, the 35mm focal length is a popular choice and Voigtländer currently offers five different 35mm VM lenses, each with its own characteristics.
The lens barrel, with a modern classic design, is equipped with a 6-group, 9-element optical system featuring two double-sided aspheric lenses, which provide excellent optical performance at all apertures.
Two styles are available including the Type I aluminium design and this Type II in silver finish made of brass, which weighs a solid 284g for a substantial feeling when in use, which remains compact and portable.
