Re: FM Review of the Voigtlander 40mm f/1.2 Nokton
It’s 60 dollars more than a CV 65 APO that’s basically perfect optically. If your going by that standard I’m sorry but I’m scratching my head over the price. This has a look and it ends there. It’s also got lots of issues. Let’s just be real honest about it. I want it don’t get me wrong but if you take a very neutral stance on it which is really easy for me. I’m buying one thing that’s a look because everywhere else the CV 35 1.7 + PCX smokes it optically. This is a character lens pure and simple and honestly when I hear it’s good at F2 than a red flag goes off. This is a 1.2 lens I should be able to shoot it at 1.2
Someone has to be the jerk here. I’m glad to be that guy because I’m brutal on this stuff but again I want one. Same argument on the Batis 35 I ponied up to the bar dropped my 2 grand botched about it and moved one. That’s life I get it
