How does this lens relate to the Leica Hektor 73/1.9? I know I like that lens 🙂
Here are some of my notes on the Voigtlander 75mm f/1.8 Heliar Classic, not the same lens as your Ultron...
Is it a Heliar optically as well as by name? The only Voigtlander Heliars with a true Heliar block diagram are the two 50mm Heliars. But this one is close, differing only in having the center negative group made up of a cemented pair instead of a single element. A Heliar in spirit, then, and in this it's almost identical to the old 73mm f/1.9 Hektor, and even to the actual focal length and perhaps aperture.
Discontinued mid-2020 replaced by recent 75mm f/1.5, and, later, the 75mm f1.9 Ultron VM.
