Latest Review Posted | Voigtländer SL COLOR-HELIAR 75mm F2.5 I have the 20, 40, 58, 75 and 125 SL(II). This is my most favorite.
The hidden treasure of the SL-series in my opinion.
It has nothing stellar, like the Macro-APO-Lanthar, but it´s very well balanced.
Even at f2.5 the quality is already fantastic. Aberrations are good controlled.
Colours are one of the best and it has a nice focus transition.
Sharpness is very good and enough. But not excellent sharpness like a makro-planar or a good 50mm.
Compactness and useful focal-length make it to a very good allrounder.
I mostly use it for portraits. I seldom need aperture bigger than f2.5 for that.
Close-Ups are nice with the lens, too.
