<description>Hello to All, 
I have a problem with a Nokton 50 1.1 that I have buyed new  some month ago, from ten days the lens have a great problem of backfocus, we talk about 20cm with the subjet at 2,5m, it's impossible to use.
I have already checked the finder of the camera and tested the lens on other Leica, it's a lens problem. How I can do? There is some tech. assistance that I could contact? (I'm in europe)

thanks in advance
Mauro Ruscelli

PS do you know if exists, some tech schema of the lens, It's wit...</description>

<description>Hi

The 25mm SnapshotSkopar click stop scale focus should be the cheapest to try, but they are all getting more expensive.

<description>Just an help request, since I'm not able to find a solution for this little problem:

I'm a proud user of CV lenses on my leica M6 and CL. I bought recently a second-hand 15mm f4.5 screw mount.
The lens came without the front faceplate, the ring where is printed &quot; VOIGTLANDER SUPER WIDE-HELIAR 15mm F4.5 ASPHERICAL &quot;.
I noticed only 4 little signs of glue around the glass...   

I'm sure this is not a gap for good shots, but I would like to have my lens in perfect conditions... 
How can I have it repa...</description>

<description>Greetings!

I have an Olympus EP-1 (m4/3) and wanted to purchasea few Voigtlander lenses (cannot afford Leica lenses but understand voigtlander is a good substitute). 

Given everyone's expertise/knowlege here of Voigtlander, what &quot;top 3&quot; (or 4) lenses would you say are good life-long lens selections (i n the (well) sub-$1000 price range) to get me started? I will be grateful for your feedback.

Thank you,
Tyler...</description>

<description>Hi Steve

I know this is an old thread sorry.

The LH-3 hood fits the 5cm f/1.5 as well as the 3.5cm f/1.2, it is only slightly deeper that the normal hood, and will block the rangefinder on a Canon P but not on a Leica M.

It is expensive..

<description>I like the new look, clean, contemporary.

however (there is always that), I am in my early 60's, and my eyesight, while 20/10, is not 'trifocal'.

It seems CV has gone to a gray type against a nice white background.

The lack of contrast makes the text (much) more difficult to read easily, especially when scrolling thorugh topics, etc.

Keep the 'look', just give us a darker more contrasty type color.

I do see that there is an option to select 'colour', but BLACK is not one of the choices....</description>

<description>Hello, new member and first time poster here ...

I'm using the above finder with a GF1 and a 20mm lens. It's a lovely finder but the brightlines seem to be slightly rotated anti-clockwise, so that you think you have the subject square (or horizon horizontal!) byt the picture is always down a smidge to the right.

Does anyone know if this is adjustable? The rear element has a knurled ring that looks like it should twist (but I don't want to force it) and the hotshoe has two tiny crosshead screws fixing ...</description>
