In today’s episode, Greg and I review the Voigtländer 75mm f/1.5 Nokton for the Leica M mount. The lens was only released in 2020 and retails for below 1.000 Euro.

The Voigtländer 75mm f/1.5 Nokton replaces the earlier f/1.8 Heliar Classic lens in the Voigtländer line-up. The Nokton competes with Leica’s significantly more expensive Leica APO-Summicron-M 75mm f/2 which retails for 3.800 Euro or the Leica Noctilux-M 75mm f/1.25 which comes in at 12.150 Euro. On the cheaper end of the spectrum, the 7artisans 75mm f/1.25 costs around 500 Euro. Just looking at the specs, the Nokton promises to offer incredible value for the money:
12 aperture blades, a minimum focusing distance of 0,7 meters, great build quality including a metal hood, an optical construction with aspherical lens - all for less than 1.000 Euro.

Greg recently purchased the lens and we took it out on photo walks in and around Würzburg shooting Fujicolor C200 in his M4 (guessing the correct frame lines) and Adox Silvermax in his M6.
