40 mm F2.8 Heliar aspherical
The 40 mm F2.8 Heliar aspherical VM / L* (M39) is a compact and universally applicable lens with a lens configuration of five elements in three groups, based on the traditional Voigtländer Heliar design.
It is available with two connections: the VM connection and with M39 screw thread (here called Voigtländer L*).
VM-Mount
M-39 Version
In addition to the ultra-compact design, a highlight is the elegant and precisely manufactured focusing lever, which can also be fixed in place using a locking mechanism. With an overall length of 21.2 mm (VM bayonet mount) or 20.2 mm (L* screw mount), the lens itself remains pleasantly compact on the camera and does not protrude into the viewfinder image. The imaging performance is impressive even at open aperture with very good sharpness right to the edges, the shortest shooting distance is 0.7 m. Retro-style on the outside, but equipped with the latest optical technology on the inside, this is how our new 40 mm F2.8 Heliar aspherical VM / L* (M39) presents itself!
The weight is 131 g (VM connection) or 110 g (L* /M39 connection).
A lens hood and a snap-on cap are included in the scope of delivery.
Both connection versions are available in black or silver (lens hood and slip-on cover only available in black – also for the silver version).
* Voigtländer L-mount has nothing in common with the L-mount from Leica, Sigma, Panasonic and Leitz Cine lens!
