BrettWayne Posted February 8 Share #1 Posted February 8 Advertisement (gone after registration) I’m excited! The 75 will be announced before or at CP+ . 21 this year sooner rather than later. That makes it a five lens constant aperture set. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted February 8 Posted February 8 Hi BrettWayne, Take a look here Thypoch 75/1.4 and 21/1.4 coming. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
phojomatic Posted February 9 Share #2 Posted February 9 Great news. I saw the 28mm 1.4 the other day and have to say, it is really well built. BH Photo has the entire line on display, which is new. It's too bad they don't have the Voightlander's on display but the guy said companies have to pay to have a display (which is pretty egregious). I can see sending sample products at no cost, but to also have to pay for space? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see sending sample products at no cost, but to also have to pay for space? I last visited B&H NYC store in the 80’s when a Canon A-1 was brand new. They certainly lived up to the stereotype of a New York City camera store at the time. Bait and Switch, grey market products, etc. So I’m not surprised they would charge someone for a display booth. I consider them kind of an Amazon for photography now though and they’ve held up to their return policy in my experience, as well as serving international communities as well. Voigtlander has been doing great stuff lately in my opinion. My lens plans this year are now the Thypoch set in silver plus the new Voigtlander 90/2 APO Ultron in silver.

BrettWayne Posted February 9 Author Share #4 Posted February 9 Yes! I think it’s a stellar idea. However, the Cine version lacks rangefinder support. And although I sound like a real a$$, they aren’t available in silver 😁 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrettWayne Posted February 9 Author Share #8 Posted February 9 Photorumors site has posted a picture of the 75 front. Looks like 16 blade aperture (?), 58mm filter, and fluted focus ring. The others have 49mm filters. Welcome, dear visitor!

Olaf_ZG Posted February 9 Share #11 Posted February 9 I would be interested in the 21mm, but it depends on its size… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it’s easy to conjecture that it would be similar to the 50mm Simera? But then again it’s a guess. Also on a 21mm it’s senseless to attempt framing through the rangefinder anyways, at least from my experience, so I’ll use a Zeiss 21mm viewfinder. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrettWayne Posted February 10 Author Share #14 Posted February 10 4 hours ago, Al Brown said: No, just spoke to Thypoch as I had to check this rather irrational decision not to RF couple the Simera-C series with Leica M. It is apparently just a precaution not to cannibalize their regular Simera line. Sad though, for a cinematographer director like me it would have been a pure win-win situation to use the C series both on camera lines like RED or Sony FX and Leica M. I would have totally bought the kit I posted above but without the coupling it is an absolute deal breaker. And one more issue, the 67mm and 72mm front diameter on the C series would massively obscure the M viewfinder. I take it you’re not a fan of the visoflex ? Quite a few of my lenses don’t fit well into the RF formula, so I’m cool with the oversized non coupled lenses - they allow me to go places Leica is too smug to go… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I should have done more than a quick search, but is there a good Leica M mount to Sony E Mount, ( for my FX6 ).......? or are these lenses made in an E mount as standard? Again I couldn't find that info' but maybe I'm lazy today and knew you'd know the answers! But for a pretty comprehensive prime set that price is quite amazing. **** Sorry Al, just found the link with the answers, E and M mounts available.
