Optical construction: 8 elements in 6 groups with apochromatic correction, closest focusing distance 0.35 m, filter thread 39 mm.

## Long description

The Voigtländer 50 mm F3.5 APO-LANTHAR Type II is a manual-focus 50mm prime lens designed for VM-mount full-frame rangefinder cameras and mirrorless bodies with an adapter. Its optical layout of 8 elements in 6 groups includes anomalous partial dispersion glass for apochromatic correction, delivering high resolution, strong contrast and accurate colour rendition across the frame. The compact metal barrel in silver, 52 mm in diameter and 45 mm long, provides a lightweight option for portrait, street and travel photography while maintaining solid build quality. The lens accepts 39 mm filters, focuses down to 0.35 m and is supplied with a matched-color lens hood and a black front cap.
Advantages
The apochromatic optical design minimises chromatic aberration and improves colour fidelity and edge-to-edge sharpness at all apertures. The compact, predominantly metal construction offers a robust yet lightweight solution that is suitable for handheld use over long shooting sessions. Manual focus control gives precise framing and fine-tuning for rangefinder and adapted mirrorless workflows. The included hood helps reduce flare and stray light, preserving contrast in challenging lighting.
Suitable for
Portrait photography where compact size and natural colours are required
Street and documentary work benefiting from discreet, lightweight optics
Travel photography when low weight and small dimensions are priorities
Film and digital rangefinder systems and mirrorless cameras via adapter

How to use
Attach the lens to a VM-mount camera or to a mirrorless camera using a suitable adapter. Set your camera to manual or rangefinder focusing mode and use the lens focusing ring to achieve precise focus; the closest focusing distance is 0.35 m. Select aperture according to depth-of-field needs—wider settings for subject separation and smaller apertures for increased depth and maximum sharpness. Use viewfinder/parallax correction methods appropriate for rangefinder bodies, or live-view focus aids on mirrorless cameras for critical focusing.
Usage recommendations
For optimal image quality, stop down to f/5.6–f/11 when maximum edge-to-edge sharpness is required. Use the included hood in bright or backlit scenes to minimise flare. When adapting the lens to mirrorless systems, choose a high-quality adapter to preserve rangefinder flange distance and maintain accurate focus. Clean filters and front element regularly and store the lens with caps and hood attached to protect the finish.
