I review the Voigtlander 35/1.2 ii ASPH (CV 35 1.2 ii) with Sony a7


Recommended Posts

tl:dr

 

I love the Voigtlander performance. I love the fact that it's f/1.2 and it's 35mm and I am coming to enjoy 35mm much more than I've had. But I like it for the very shallow depth of field and low light capability and coupled with the Voigtlander VM-E Close Focus adapter, you can get some really good interesting shots with your 35mm a whole lot closer than you could if you did not have the Close Focus adapter mounted on your camera. Leave me your thoughts or questions below. If you've used this lens I'd love to hear how you use and what circumstances you use it in.

    • Sorry, had to catch your attention somehow.  🙂 I've loved Zeiss lenses for a couple decades--have been a fotog since only 2000--and have had many different versions.. Bought an a7R V weeks ago, attached the Batis 18/2.8, added an 85/2.8 plus a Sony 24-70/2.8 GM II and a Tamrom 50-300 4.5-6.3, and thought I was ready.. But then ordered Batises in 25/2 and 40/2 (arriving today), and then ordered a 135/2.8 to arrive ...tomorrow, Thursday?  (How can B&H/FedEx do that--Wed. morn. to Thurs. afternoon--for the few-dollars addon B&H gets for NEXT-day shipping?)  Total gear weight without the Tamron will be just 6.8 pounds/3.7kg and 8.4 pounds/3.8kg. with it.. All this (and other required stuff) fits in my ThinkTank Airport Roller, so I won't have to carry it, which I cannot physically do. Off to two and two-half days in the Palouse Monday the 2nd; we'll see how all those Bs hold up.
    • Hello, Would it be possible in a future firmware update for DSLRs to change the order of White Balance options in the menu?   It would be much more practical if the Kelvin (K) setting was listed first, followed by Auto, and then the rest of the predefined options.   When filming, it would allow for a quicker switch from Auto to Kelvin mode and then easily adjust the exact white balance using the DIAL wheel – and quickly return to Auto if needed.   Currently, we need to scroll through several predefined white balance presets to switch between Auto and a custom Kelvin setting, which can be impractical during a shoot.
