Superb shots! The lenses in these old Voigtlanders are great. I have the ‘barn door’ Vitessa with an f/2 Ultron but unfortunately the speeds are all over the place now. I’ve not dared to attempt a service on this quirky, complex but to me beautiful camera.
Of course the more modern ‘Voigtlander’ lenses, made by Cosina, are excellent too. I have the 90mm Apo-Lanthar and 35mm Color Skopar with their associated viewfinders, for use on Bessa L and Bessa T, and Leica CL (which isn’t a Leica!).
Sadly, you’d be lucky indeed to find any of the above, including the Vitessa, at a ‘frugal’ price.uperb shots! The lenses in these old Voigtlanders are great.
