This is part of a series of articles showcasing pictures taken on the Voigtländer Ultron Vintage Line 28mm/1:2. These pictures were taken around Queen Victoria Building with the lens aperture mostly wide open (f2).
The Voigtländer Ultron Vintage Line 28mm F2 VM is revised version of the original Ultron 28mm, featuring a small and lighter lens with improved performance..
Here are various photos, taken around the Grand Staircase of the Queen Victoria Building, showing the lens performance at f2. The lens performs quite well even wide open and captures the detail in dark conditions well.
