No offense to the photographers and not trying to start a war... just perused the photos here quickly and, being honest, not a fan of the signature of this lens - or somefin. Something off, somewhat harsh - or something, about them. Hard to put my finger on.

Maybe a poor choice of words. Let's stick with can't put my finger on it. Harsh may be too harsh... These lenses definitely have their own look. Something a "little off" after seeing a bunch of them. I know nothing about these lenses, other than they exist... praise/criticism/reputation - I have no knowledge, and no predisposition. Not awful, don't hate them, but I find some of the rendering a tad displeasing for reasons I can't articulate.
Could also be one lens of the group. Didn't really check. Some photos look okay - non descript. Most of the black and white ones. Shows up more in some of the color ones to my eye.

The Voigtlander Nokton Classic 35 f/1.4 is a great walkaround lens. I used this lens while traveling through Guatemala and Belize and left the heavier, larger Summilux ASPH 35 at home. Paired with the Leica M8, I was very happy with the quality of photographs.

About this photo: Antigua is a bustling city in Guatemala, Central America. A boy sits with his family in the protective shade away from the scorching heat. Nearby shopkeepers spray water onto the city streets to keep the dust from blowing into their stores, and a young couple walks by enjoying a mid-day beer.

Mine has a solid barrel but a loose focus tab. Any cure to that? Thank you.

M2 and 35/1.4 Nokton. My mother-in-law's garden. I thought these were taken at f/4 but by the look of them I'd say at least a few are wider than that.

One of the nice things about this lens is that it lets you get a bit closer than the earlier Leica 35's and my Canon 35/2.

I had only read Tom A.'s opinion of this lens, which is high; that was good enough for me. What are the general complaints about it? [I know I could search the web for this but that wouldn't be as socially satisfying as asking you all....]

not the sharpest lens i own but the one that gives me a "classic" look thats still plenty sharp...after much debate and several weeks renting a pre-asph summilux, i decided that i preferred the nokton.
its become a favorite lens both for its size and the look it yields.
the images below were shot with my 35 nokton classic mc and m8. processed in lr4.

I have such a love/hate relationship wih this lens. I love how it handles, its compactness+speed, but the circular reflex it can have sometimes - just as the pre-asph lux does - drives me nuts how I wish it didn't! still, it's probably the lens that I've used the most.
