Hey YM,

Thanks for getting me confused. Did you do any post-work for distortion?

She looks very low on the Make-My-Head-Look-Like-An-American-Football scale. My old 25mm Snap-Shot was very low, especially when compared to my 24/2.8 Nikkor.

Another stellar CV lens.

Wondering when CV will start looking towards the Medium Format market (pretty untapped right now)?

Thanks again for sharing.

Hello B2,

Nothing was done for distortion; the images are just JPEGS almost straight out of the camera. I did brightened them up just a teeny little bit before posting them.

Thank you for asking!

All the best,
Mike

It is actually equivalent to 27mm in terms of a full-frame sensor. (1.5 x 18 = 27)

Yes, you must be right. I was going by what the lens manufacturer [Cosina] said.

Per the Cosina website:
COLOR-SKOPAR 18mm F2.8 Aspherical X mount is a wide-angle lens designed exclusively for Fujifilm X mount. By designing the maximum aperture value to F2.8, the overall size of the product is kept compact. The overall length is 23.5mm from the mount, making it highly portable, and the angle of view is equivalent to 28mm in full-frame size, making it suitable for a wide range of uses, from snapshots to tabletop photos.

Either way, it's a nice lens.

All the best,
Mike

I own the 23mm f1.2, 27mm f2, 35mm f1.2, and the 35mm Ultron....hoping to buy this lens soon as well as the 50mm NOKTON f1.2.

Per my own lens list I have:

Voigtländer Color-Skopar 18mm f2.8 (X-mount) lens (FF Eq 28mm) (ø43mm filter size)
Voigtländer Nokton 23mm f1.2 (X-mount) lens (FF Eq 34.5mm) (ø46mm filter size)
Voigtländer Ultron 27mm f2 (X-mount) lens (FF Eq 40mm) (ø43mm filter size)
Voigtländer Nokton 35mm f1.2 (X-mount) lens (FF Eq 53mm) (ø46mm filter size)
Voigtländer Macro APO-Ultron 35mm f2 (X-mount) lens (FF Eq 52.5mm) (ø49mm filter size)

I am also considering the 50mm NOKTON f1.2. With a minimum shooting distance of 0.39m what's not to like?

All the best,
Mike
