I sent this message to the List back on 18 Nov. There was a review
of the 75/2.5 in an AP about then. I'll dig it out and scan it to a
page of anyone's if they want.

Okay, I'm answering my own question but work is slow today so I made
a couple of calls, this info is prob of interest:
Cosina/Voigtlander is currently shipping a 75/2.5 color-heliar lens
in an OM mount, RRP £299 in the UK. Havn't seen a lens test in AP or
PP, but the screw mounts for the RFs get good write-ups.

Dear fellow Hobbits (sorry Hobbyists)
The latest edition of Amateur Photographer has a review of the new
Voigtländer Color-Heliar 75/2.5. It will have various fits,
including OM, and its price in the UK is projected to be £300 - or
perhaps it's available already.
The lens has a fair proportion of chrome (or whatever the metal is)
and although it will be a solid piece of kit, it is small. I expect
that its performance, which was highly praised in AP, will be better
than the 85/2. Any reports elsewhere on this... and does it form
part of the addiction?
