What would probably gall you no end are the words "Voigtlander Germany"
printed on the instruction sheet for the lens.  The lens was made in Japan,
and I am pretty sure the sheet was printed in Japan.  So where does Germany
fit into the picture?  

But....the lens and viewfinder and filter holder are very nicely built and
finished, so I don't think the Voiglander name is being used in vain here.
