Following the success of the Heliar 15/4.5 ASPH. and Skopar 25/4.0, Cosina will be releasing a new Voigtlander Nokton 50/1.5 and APO Lanthar 90/2.0, both in Leica screw mount, this summer. They will be launched with the new rangefinder-equipped Bessa body. It will be interesting to see how the new Nokton stack up against the original version described here. JY
