Voigtlander Color Skopar I 28 mm f/2.8 lens for Leica M - black

The Color Skopar I 28 mm f/2.8 is an ultra-compact wide-angle lens designed to work with digital and analog rangefinders equipped with the Leica M bayonet. Despite its extremely small size, the lens features an advanced optical design that guarantees high sharpness, excellent color reproduction and a timeless analog look.

Wide, but with care The lens focal length of 28 mm makes it see wider than the classic thirty-five, but still doesnt stretch the image the way super wide-angle designs such as 14 or 15 mm used to do. This makes the Color Skopar ideal for the heart of events. During reportage, it will allow to give the viewer the atmosphere of the moment without distorting or misrepresenting it. In street photography, architecture or landscape photography, it will allow you to present the main subject of the photo against his surroundings. Sophisticated optical design The Color Skopar 28mm is a precision general-purpose optical tool that will allow you to combine the plastic depth of a scene with a simultaneous wide angle of view.

The lens is sharp from the edge of the frame even at fully open aperture. The eight-element design surprises with microcontrast without losing the distinctive, classic rendering for which Voigtlander lenses are famous. Smooth light control The Color Skopar I 28mms 10-blade aperture offers an adjustable setting range from f/2.8 to f/22 with 1/2 EV steps. Such a span provides freedom when working with depth of field, allowing you to blur the background, or preserve its details.

Quality in a compact design The Color Skopar 28mm lens is available in two barrel versions: I reminiscent of classic designs from the last century, and II with a modern look. Regardless of the version chosen, the entire lens barrel is made of metal, so it will maintain its accuracy for many years. The focus ring moves smoothly, but with the necessary resistance for precise operation. For more comfortable operation, the Color Skopar I 28 mm f/2.8 is equipped with an ergonomic pusher, which is also a helicoidal movement lock. The lens is available in two finishes: black and silver.

Bayonet Leica M The lens is equipped with a Leica M bayonet, designed for Leica and Voigtlander rangefinder cameras. Using the appropriate bayonet adapter, it can be put on any Canon R, Fuxjilim X, Nikon Z, Sony E or Micro 4/3 mirrorless camera. The lens covers the entire 35mm format frame with its image.

Lens in black finish is not recognized by cameras using the 6-BIT CODE READER. TO USE THE CARTRIDGE ON AN APPAREL WITH 6-BIT CODE SYSTEM, DISABLE THE CARTRIDGE DETECTION FUNCTION IN THE APPAREL OPTIONS OR SET IT TO AUTO.
