Voigtlander 35mm f/2 VM ASPH Apo-Lanthar Lens Summary
The 35mm f/2 VM ASPH Apo-Lanthar Lens has been described by Voigtlander themselves as their best performing 35mm lens for Leica M rangefinders. This means it provides the highest resolution and most accurate colour rendition possible, on par with the acclaimed VM 50mm f2 APO-Lanthar.
35mm offers a slightly wider field of view with more in the frame, suitable for a broad range of purposes including portraits, environmental scenes, city and street photography. The list of features which have been engineered is extensive and renders extremely strong optical performance.
Features at a glance
- Apochromatic colour correction
- Floating lens elements for better close focusing performance at 50 cm
- Two double sided aspherical elements from 11 elements in 9 groups
- Five abnormal partial dispersion elements
- Superior multi-coating for outstanding flare control
Beautifully rendered bokeh can be achieved together with excellent low light performance thanks to a fast aperture range of f/2-f/16. Despite packing lots of glass the 35mm f/2 VM ASPH Apo-Lanthar remains compact at 58.1 x 55.6mm and a lightweight 304 g.

Our Verdict
There are a number of 35mm lens options in the Leica M lens range including models from Voigtlander themselves. With the release of this 35mm f/2 VM ASPH Apo-Lanthar Lens however, Voigtlander state there is no better performer available from them. This is down to an optical formula which includes numerous aspherical and partial dispersion elements that render superb results. Colour is also natural and accurate allowing photographers to get on with the craft of making images rather than considering editing requirements.
Similarly manual focussing offers the same immersive image-making experience, particularly with the buttery smooth focus ring we find on this model. The filter thread is a cost-effective 49mm which allows users to add CPL and other filters easily if required for their shooting style and 50 cm close focus adds a nice option for close-up work. With excellent light gathering capabilities from a bright aperture, beautifully smooth bokeh and a solid yet compact design, we are certain this lens will find its way into many a kit bag.
