Retailing in Japan for JPY75000, which is about S$970! This should replaced the Voigtlander Ultron 28mm f/1.9 in LTM mount. Looks like it's slightly smaller and already incoporate an M mount.

This is what a 15mm should look like in it's full glory!

Shot with the Voigtlander Super Wide-Heliar 15mm f/4.5 Aspherical on the Leica M7, so there is no 'crop' on the image as it's not a APS-C sensor.

By the way, lots of goodies from this Japan trip. Got the another Zeiss Ikon, but in black. Some vintage Canon and Nikkor M39 rangefinder lenses as well! All in all, a good trip.

Cheers
