Overview

The Voigtlander 65mm F2 Macro APO-Lanthar is a manual-focus lens praised for outstanding sharpness, excellent color and micro-contrast, and effective correction of chromatic aberrations. Its build is all-metal with smooth focus and aperture rings, but lacks weather-sealing. The 1:2 macro capability is useful but not full 1:1. It suits photographers wanting a versatile, high-quality prime for general use, portraits, and occasional macro, especially Sony E-mount users.
