Originally posted by Asahiflex There's no such thing as the 125mm f/2.5 Apo-Lanthar SLII. The last 125mm Apo-Lanthars have been made in 2001, it was a VERY slow seller.
okay, so they only made a SL Version, it isn't as if there is a huge difference between the two. The SLII lenses are chipped So matrix metering can be used but as long as the lenses have an "A" position any Pentax (D)SLR can use them.
I like the rendering of the Voigtlander 125mm f/2.5 APO Lanthar. My only gripe is that it doesn't have a tripod collar.
I Called my Lens supplier and unfortunately there aren't any K mount voigtlander 58mm f/1.4's left from their principal supplier so he's going to look around and try to find me one...or if there aren't any left I'll get the lens in Nikon F mount and use it on my D3s - though I already own the Highly regarded 58mm f/1.2 Noct nikkor which makes things a bit awkward.
