- Ultra-compact, lightweight design (99 g)
- Retro style with robust metal housing
- Total length of only 14 mm
- Manual focus and integrated rangefinder

Compact retro design for maximum comfort
With a weight of just 99 g and an overall length of 14 mm beyond the lens mount, the COLOR-SKOPAR is a real lightweight. Its compact retro housing is reminiscent of the classic rangefinder snapshot cameras of the 1930s and lends a nostalgic charm.
Innovative accessories for more flexibility
The lens hood supplied integrates seamlessly into the aperture control ring and has a practical aperture indicator line. Thanks to the supplied thin-frame filter with a thickness of just 1.1 mm, the overall length of the lens remains almost unchanged. The lens cap and the accurately manufactured aperture cap round off the elegant design.
Precision and reliability in every shooting situation
The minimum focusing distance is 0.7 m. The manual focus enables precise control through the elaborately manufactured focusing lever, which is equipped with a locking mechanism for the infinity position.
The Voigtländer COLOR-SKOPAR 35 mm F3.5 aspherical VM is available in two color variants: silver and black. The surface of the focusing lever is chrome-plated on the silver version and nickel-plated on the black version. The scope of delivery includes two lens caps in matching colors, a lens hood with fixing screw and a protective filter. The lens hood can also be attached when the protective filter is fitted.
