Voightlander 75 mm and 90 mm for Leica M

> [DEAR MARCO, I HAVE EXPERIENCE WTH THE VOIGTLANDER 75MM ON M7: IT WORKS PERFECTLY, AND IT IS A RELATIVELY GOOD LENS AFTER F4 UNTIL F8. IT IS MUCH EASIER THAN THE SUMMILUX AND WHEN STOPPED DOWN GIVES SATISFACTORY RESULTS. MIND THEAT THE SUMMILUX'S BEST APPERTURE IS 2,4, WHICH IS NOT GOOD FOR SOME SHOTS BECAUSE OF THE LACK OF DEPTH OF FIELD. WIDE OPEN THE 75 VOIGLANDER IS SOFT. THERE IS A CERTAIN SENSITIVTY TO REFLEXION, BUT NOT ITS OK. LINEAR DISTORSION IS ALSO FINE. RUDOLF KLEIN]
 
Marco, I have the 75mm Heliar, and it is excellent. Beautifully made, and balances nicely on my M3. The VC viewer for it is a dandy, also. The glass gives great b&w shots, but yields colors that are muted. You could fix that with a saturated color film.
