Finally Ken Rockwell...

[Juan Valdenebro]

Finally Ken Rockwell has sweet words for CV... I hope his rating of the 40 2 Ultron for SLRs above Leica 40 Summicron-C, is taken as it should be: without any pinch of salt... 😀 Wonderful fast lens for its size! I wish all Bessa users more new small lenses from Mr. K.!

Cheers,

Juan

I've seen him review other CV lenses like the M mount 15 and 21, and he's generally quite positive. Seems the only CV product he really hates is the Bessa (and IMHO, unfairly).

Everything Ken Rockwell writes should be taken with a pinch of salt. 😉

But the 40 f/2 Ultron for SLRs is a very nice lens ...mine is the first version in Nikon mount. Here's an f/2 shot on D400...

Nice shot Craig. I've been thinking about picking up one of these lenses to live on my FM3a as a light carry round set up.

Thanx... its just Bangkok shot from a couple of years ago ...and not that it matters but this was with the FM3a as well 😀

Yes, nice shot Craig... The lens is great for sure...

Sure... I just meant this one's an amazingly good and flat lens. No salt for me this time... Of course his site is a controversy based sales site.

Cheers,

My FM3a always starts the day with the 40/2.🙄
