hopefully they fixed the loose barrel problem that the current Nokton has.

I hope it's as good or better than the LTM 50/1.5 Nokton! A fantastic lens

 

[NazgulKing]

Hopefully comparable to the CV 35/1.2 version II in performance and characteristics.

The optical formula is supposedly the same as the most recently discontinued 1,5/50 LTM.

The chrome rings are coming loose on the new (35) Noktons? Yikes.

Voigtländer 50mm f/1.5 Nokton Aspherical Announced

Stephen Gandy guessed that the lens structure might be different from the previous CV 50/1.5 LTM, since the filter size reduces from 52mm to 49mm.
I have two copies of the prominent mount versions, one of them has filter size of 47mm-female, the other has an unique 49mm-female (the thread is exterior on the lens barrel!).

I guess Stephen might be one of the 1st dealer in the world to get the first batch. not sure how much it will cost. I guess the silver ones will sell like crazy in the very beginning.

This M mount version looks quite different from the LTM lens. I prefer the appearance of the previous lens more, haha! This looks like something out of MS Optical

 

[shepherdmoon]

from a dealer in Taiwan, this lens will be available around August 2013.
a long time to wait!

[crispy12]

70cm minimum focusing distance!!!

The design seems similar to the old design in 1950s. Check this out:
