Voigtlander 75mm f2.5 M Mount

Hi,

I've tried to find some technical specs on the Voigtlander 75mm f2.5 lens, specifically in regard to its coating.

Is this normal (please see attached images)? My initial impression is that this is a coating. It looks too fine and consistent to be haze (particularly given the lens is not old).

Apart from minor dust, it's otherwise clean.

Thanks!

Looks consistent with the "haze" many CV lenses of this generation suffer from. I believe it's deteriorating cement. Return the lens if you can.

Damn. I was really hoping that this was not the case.
