Awww, this lens alone makes me sad I jumped ships and got a Fuji.

I know, I know - I can get it in Leica M mount and then use an adapter to Fuji.
The thing is - even if I did so, I wouldn't get that fabulous 40 mm FOV (FF EQV) on X-T3, which I really long for..

Just take a look at these photos:

I had this lens on my a7ii, sold the cam, kept the lens and made eventually the plunge back to Sony land because of that single lens - whenever i look at the images it produces I cant say something else than plain love 🥰

Since I am currently more a telephoto kind of guy, the equiv 60mm is ok for now. When i came back this weekend with my first shots with the voigt on the a6600 i was blown away by its sharpness - you really need to see the picture fullscreen to see the insane sharpness - the forum preview does a rather poor job. Quite some time ago that I was that blown away by gear as i am right now with this lens. Even when taking into consideration that this is just a 4k framegrab and not a photo!

Speaking of 40mm photos taken with this lens (again open in fullscreen):

I need to start adapting them to my Z6. Loved the 40mm 1.2 when I tried it. Couldn't quite justify keeping it when I have a 40 f2. Might get the 21mm 1.4, I feel I could use a fast wide angle right now more that another fast 40mm.
