Originally posted by WiseOx I have the SL version of the 90, and it really is an amazing lens.....though I had considered flipping it, to fund the DA100mm WR macro. Now I'm torn.
Gotta admit, that DFA 100 WR does take the sting out of letting the 90 go!
Nice fast AF, and makes a great short tele and portrait lens too.
Possibly hurt sales of the SLII as well, since they're priced so closely ($549 for the 90, $609 at Adorama for the 100WR). Compared to a Canon 100/2.8 Macro, the Voigtlander is tiny, but the 100WR is even lighter than the VL 90 and has a beautiful build.
If I was only doing closeup stuff, I'd have to say I preferred using the Voigtlander because of the nicely damped focusing. Sometimes I see a little extra magic in the Voigtlander images, but it could be my imagination...
