[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I have the Voigtlander lens. If f3:5 is fast enough and you don't want to pay Leica prices buy it. I have an image of some kebab that I took in Greece at... http://www.steveunsworth.co.uk/Misc_html/misc_image.htm taken at f3:5 it doesn't really prove anything I guess as it's quite a small image. I don't use 90mm that much so I'll probably buy a 28mm Summicron before I buy a 90mm Summicron. The real bargains for me in the Voigtlander range are the 15mm - no alternative, and the 21mm - an absolute cracker of a lens.

It didn't win, but it must be notable, as there were lots of great lenses developed in 2001.
