alexander_nichols Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 <p>Cosina will make another run of the 50 f/2 and f/3.5 Heliars this fall, 600 samples each. Apparently they will come with an M adapter: http://www.cosina.co.jp/seihin/voigt/v-lens/v-l-m/h50-2-3.5/index.html</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aplumpton Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 <p>Great. For high resolution 35mm RF photography with slow films, the f3.5 lens is reputed to be one of the best 50s ever made.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

astral Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 <p>Woww! A whole 600 samples .... and presumably most going to Japan. They're not exactly going to be lenses for <em>photographers </em> then, more for collectors. Thanks a bunch!</p> <p>But that said, the mixed reputation of the 50/2 may suggest that worldwide sales might not exceed 600 or so. </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael_dimarzio Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 <p>Hi Arthur, I need a 50 (and a 21 or wider) to round out my RF kit. Do you have any links to why the 3,5 is supposed to be a good lens I'd love to read them.</p> <p>thanks-md</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
