  • Tremendous quality--and value!
I previously had a 50mm Voigtlander and wasn't thrilled with the sharpness and color, so was hesitant to purchase this lens. However, I am having a great time with it. The focus ring is easy to use and the flat lens makes the camera very comfortable to carry. It provides a nice color rendition. Surprisingly, the black and whites--when shot straight monotone--are just spectacular (I use a Leica M-E). I'm looking forward to many years with this lens. It is definitely under priced for what it does! ... show more

  • This little lens is amazing! It's sharp as hell and reasonable fast
This little lens is amazing! It's sharp as hell and reasonable fast. It serves well as an everyday lens (I think it's the smallest 35mm lens I've ever seen) for both portraits with shallow depth of field, landscapes, and street photography shots. Super glad I got this!

  • Value, Compactness and Aggressive Style at the Cost of Accuracy
After two three weeks of shooting daily with this lens I feel the need to both sing its praises as well as speak of its particular characteristics which may or may not appeal to the potential buyer. FYI my camera is a Leica M 240 and I was shooting this lens daily alongside a Summilux 50 asph, and a Zeiss Biogon 25. After spending many hours processing in Lightroom I am very aware of what makes this lens special and different. First and foremost perhaps there is the size. It is one of the smallest M mount lenses on the market, which is great if you want to keep a low profile and not be weighed down by your camera. It looks super cool too, like a real vintage lens and I think the construction is very good. I think this is primarily a street photography lens. Because of the size, the focal length, as well as its optical characteristics. Most often I shoot this lens at F8 as I am quickly grabbing pictures of people on the street or shooting a building or cityscape where shallow depth of field isn't desired as much as sharpness. This lens is surprisingly sharp. Not edge to edge like a modern Leica, but for me this is a non-issue. It's sharp enough throughout the image and records detail extremely well. What really stands out to me about this lens is how incredibly contrasty and saturated the images are. I often look at a RAW file and initially think it must be a JPG. I try to shoot to protect for my highlights and the images from this lens will typically contain quite a bit of black that you can't pull much detail out from. It entirely lacks the finesse of the Leica and Zeiss lenses but delivers a lot of kick. With the Leica and Zeiss lenses I try to keep the processing fairly minimal because the lens properties are so beautiful and I don't want to mask them. This lens begs me to embrace the contrasty look and ratchet things up a bit or take the image into a more stylized direction. As far as color goes, I can't honestly say it renders it very well. This is fine if you're shooting architecture but can become problematic for people or really even landscape. If you have flawless beautiful lighting it's probably going to be just fine, but in a day to day situation I find it very difficult to achieve a realistic look for human skin. I end up fidgeting not just with color temperature and tint, but getting into the individual color sliders for hue, saturation and luminance and still never being quite pleased with it. It's not that it's rendering human skin poorly in particular, it's that the look of human skin is something that is so ingrained in us that we are much more sensitive to perceiving it. Likewise plant life seems to be a bit tricky. If you are going for any HDR-like effects by preserving highlight detail and exposing shadow detail, prepare for the greens to become hyper-saturated and yellow. So you can definitely achieve some really fun looks with this but if you're preference is for super-realistic color, you'll be hard pressed to get it. For all of the above reasons I tend to process a lot of the pictures I take with this lens in black and white, primarily using Silver Efex Pro. And it lends itself very well to this. If you want to make moody black and white images, this lens delivers. Wide open this lens is still capable of achieving very good detail in the area of focus. Of course there's not much in the way of bokeh and the out of focus areas tend to have a somewhat agitated look. This gives it a bit of vintage feel I think and lends itself well to black and white especially. I've photographed a friend in perfectly even magic hour light and didn't have the color problems I've experienced in most other situations. Wide open, the subject stood out quite well. The price of course is pretty great. The bottom line is that you're looking for a very compact and affordable lens that brings an aggressive and fun style to the table this is an excellent choice. Don't for a minute think it will give you a Leica look. But I personally think it's fun to dabble in different styles and looks and I've thoroughly enjoyed this lens. If you would like to see quite a few shots taken with this lens, please look me up on Instagram @loveikis. I've tagged all of my images taken with this lens with #colorskopar35. Happy shooting! ... show more

  • and resolution around corners is not very good. However
Not very expensive, but the images worth the price. There are dark corners, and resolution around corners is not very good. However, considering its price, and that good photos can be taken easily by it, recommend it if you do not have enough money for leica lens.

  • Affordable Substitute for Better Lenses
For those who cannot afford the real thing (Leica) or the almost-real thing (Zeiss), this is an okay substitute. A pretty good lens, but not the equivalent of the more costly alternatives.
