Package includes

  • Voigtlander Heliar 40mm F2.8 Aspherical Silver VM-Mount
  • Lens hood,
  • Lens cap,
  • Rear cap

It is available with two connections: the VM connection and with M39 screw thread (here called Voigtländer L*).

In addition to the ultra-compact design, a highlight is the elegant and precisely manufactured focusing lever, which can also be fixed in place using a locking mechanism. With an overall length of 21.2 mm (VM bayonet mount) or 20.2 mm (L* screw mount), the lens itself remains pleasantly compact on the camera and does not protrude into the viewfinder image. The imaging performance is impressive even at open aperture with very good sharpness right to the edges, the shortest shooting distance is 0.7 m. Retro-style on the outside, but equipped with the latest optical technology on the inside, this is how our new 40 mm F2.8 Heliar aspherical VM / L* (M39) presents itself!

The weight is 131 g VM connection.
A lens hood and a snap-on cap are included in the scope of delivery.

Both connection versions are available in black or silver (lens hood and slip-on cover only available in black – also for the silver version).
