35mm F2.5 VM Color-Skopar P II - 100 Year Edition Lens
COLOR-SKOPAR 35mm F2.5 SKOPAR - 100th model
Commemorating the 100th anniversary of Voigtländer's Skopar series, the COLOR-SKOPAR 35mm F2.5 VM
is a model based on the long-selling pancake-style wide-angle lens, it features an elegant silver finish.
The origins of the optical system used in this product can be traced back to the screw-mount COLOR-SKOPAR 35mm F2.5 C
and P Type lenses, which were released in 1999 for the film camera BESSA series.
The COLOR-SKOPAR 35mm F2.5 VM, which adopted the VM mount following the BESSA series' transition to a bayonet mount,
is highly regarded not only for its compact size but also for its excellent handling and mobility, making it a highly versatile everyday lens.
The optical system, which has been passed down through the centuries, delivers sharp clarity and rich tonal range even when used
with film cameras; however, when used with digital cameras equipped with older-generation sensors that are no longer in production, colour
cast may appear at the edges of the image frame.
COLOR-SKOPAR 35mm F2.5 VM Skopar 100th model combines compactness and light weight - with a total length of 23mm from the mount
and a body weight of 134g - with practicality. Furthermore, the distance and aperture scale markings feature the distinctive font used in the
Vintage Line products.
In addition, as accessories befitting this model, the lens comes with a metal lens shade with slits and a rear cap, both finished in silver to match
the body colour. The beautiful, durable, metal bayonet-mount lens shade not only dresses up the camera with a classic touch but also features
a slit design that minimizes vignetting when mounted on a rangefinder camera.
The rear lens cap is a special metal design constructed from three pieces. Made of aluminum, it combines a premium metallic finish, which satisfy
the desire to own, with lightweight portability.
