Voigtländer ultron 21mm f/1.8

Has any one tried this lens on the R-D1?


I am trying to choose between 21mm lenses;

Voigtländer 21/1.8
Zeiss 21/2.8
Elmarit pre-asph 21/2.8

However, I haven't come across this lens being tried out on the R-D1. Any insight will be appreciated

I don't own a copy -- rented it about 6 months ago when it was first released. Loved it. Great to have a well built, wide option that doesn't cost an arm and leg for the R-D1.

Thank you! were those pictures shot wide open?

The shot of the basketball court was at 1.8. I believe I was around 2.8 for both fog shots. The shot below was also at 1.8 / 1600 ISO

This picture <3 Amazing work! If I had any money right now, I'd order a print from you. And I mean it. Currently I'm having exhibition (printing cost arm and leg, as well as gallery rent) so there's no extra. But it's AMAZING piece. Just in the style I admire and look for in my own work as well.

it works wonderfully. I have one and used on an R-D1 i had exchanged with a friend (but he asked it back, darn) and got fantastic results:
