Yes I do... Just that the demand is really really low... I did not post the price on my web site.

All the lenses from CV are still available. Hopefully, you revive some interests over here. I will put up the price list on my web site again in the next few days...

Waah, i'm interested already.

While Voigtlander SC optics are the same great optics as the equivalent LTM and M lenses, I find that the long focus throw of the SC series really helps to nail focus precisely. The SC 25/4 is also RF coupled, unlike the LTM CV 25/4.

Here's a couple of pics. Voigtlander SC Skopar 21/4 on the left, W-Nikkor 35/1.8 in the middle, and Voigtlander SC Skopar 28/3.5 on the right.

Actually the R2S body with the 50mm/f3.5 kit is the most value for money combi of all the RF bodies right now. Going for a song these days. Great for starting RF photography.

The only downside is that lens mount is not M mount. But again, if one is not into gear switching and all those "measurebating" stuff... the R2S kit is a absolutely great RF body to jump into the RF world...
