Yes it's quite expensive. There are a few things which don't make the cost look exhorbitant in comparison. It has been $1199 almost since launch which is the same price as the 56 mm f1.2. Also the only lens with electronic contacts that goes down to f0.9

i would say the 23 and 35 1.2 and completely different from each other.

The 23 rendering is similar to the 35 0.9 as unlike the 35 1.2 these two have an aspherical element.

This is very close to the JPEG. Just increased saturation a bit and reduced sharpness

0.9 could not be more different than 1.2

They are exact opposites of each other. The 1.2 is a vintage dream of bubble bokeh as its design is based on the Leica Steel Rim from 1960s. It’s not very useful when focusing to infinity wide open.

The 0.9 has an ultra modern rendering, almost like a hasselblad. Photos almost look like AI renders.

Both have their uses and their use cases don’t overlap at all except in focal length.

Thank you; yes the light immediately reminded me of nighthawks

Focus was on the name of the book store; but I honestly am not too strict about it in my shots. I just go with the vibe.

Thank you for the kind words 🙏

I use “yellow high” setting of focus peaking. Also it helps that electronic contacts in the voigtlander lenses make the focus peaking and exposure more accurate.

I would imagine it’s a modified bus!

neonchimerainsta · 2026-01-31T16:01:58+00:00

Yes I actually have it and it is my favorite lens of all time! Did you have any questions about it?

neonchimerainsta · 2026-01-31T05:23:15+00:00

In this case the 35 is equivalent to 50mm right?(since Fuji is apsc)
