Voigtländer Skopar 50 f2.5

Voigtländer Skopar 50 f2.5

The image quality one gets from these quite cheap Voigtländer lenses is remarkable. The price range being a few hundred Euro where I live is relatively affordable, nowhere near the Leica prices and I'm not going to start to go down that road.

The Skopar lenses are small, light and handle very well on the Nex system. One tip, don't go below 35mm on the Nex-7 unless you're using SLR lenses. Problems with colour shifts doesn't happen with those lenses. Nowadays, I'll only use the longer focal length lenses on the Nex-7 because of this issue of having purple edges to the image. It is correctable in post but I really don't want to go and make even more work for myself.

I can recommend the Voigtländer Skopar 50 f2.5 as it has a lovely signature and the images come very close to the Leica look many people are looking for.
