Konica Hexanon 50/1,4

I heard that Konica has nice glass. I found one, cheap. Well maybe not cheap because it's very beaten body. I guess my Ugliest body I ever have. But glass looks fine, only little seed of fungus.
There's Vivitar filter attached and cannot be detached.

Voigtlander Super Dynarex 135/4 compur

This lens is for Bessamatic camera range finder camera. It has dkl mount like Kodak Retina dkl. I used same adapter for my Schneider Kreuznah retina to EOS + EOS-NEX on Sony NEX5

Like other rangefinder lenses, this lens has long minimum focus distance ( it has 4 meters), and very compact. Perfect tele lens for compact cam (NEX5)

This is not scientific test, just quick test for my new Voigtlander APO LANTHAR 90mm f/3.5 MC Leica 39 screw mount compared to my  Leitz Elmar 90/4 Leica M mount. Both has silver body, beautiful.
Voigt condition is like new body & glass, while Leitz's body like new too but glass has cleaning mark ( due to my shots this isn't affect image quality ).

The elmar has longer body than lanthar

Lanthar's body is fatter

Lanthar has 10 blades

Elmar 15 blades

aperture 3,5 -22 of lanthar

aperture 4-32 of elmar

lanthar is MC, elmar no coating sign

Voigtlander APO LANTHAR 90mm f/3.5 MC LTM silver

APO refers to a type of lens construction that reduces color fringing, generally APO lenses are more expensie than other lenses in same type. Lanthar as far as I know refers to Lanthanum material which being used to build this lens.

I'm impressed by it capability to control contrast between bright sun area and shadow area in this picture
