That 40mm f2 looks amazing and very compact. What brand is it and how does it perform?

Always tempted by the beauty of the Ultron - even though I know that I wouldn't use it much.

Voigtlander Ultron

it's not nearly the same size as the DA 40/2.8, but is so full of character...

here's my flickr album for the Ultron:

I would happily sell my M 40 f2.8 and who knows what else around here for a good copy of the 40mm Ultron f2.0 in native PK mount. It seems like a great lens and I really like that focal length on full frame.

I'll save my thoughts on the M 40 for another thread as that is far from the purpose of this thread.

A 2/58 Biotar? Looks a lot slimmer at the bottom than mine in Praktina FX mount.

My experienced Praktina Biotar - in dire need of some cleaning and lubrication. Still takes great pictures though.
