Your english is fine, and don't lurk so much. We love to see new voices.
I'd expect the 75/2.5 to be a very good lens, as good or better than the
85/2. It's not readily available here in the US though. It costs $475
here, if you can find it. You could buy an 85/2 from KEH for $300.
Personnaly, I'd rather have the 85/2. There isn't very much difference
between the 75mm and 85mm focal lengths. And you get 1/2 stop more light
with the 85/2.
If you don't need the reach of the 100, sell it and buy an 85 and a
135/3.5. That would be $300 for the 85 and $75 for the 135/3.5. You could
sell the 100/2.8 for $125. So the whole change from 100 to 85+135 would
cost ~$250.

Hello everybody,
I dont post very much.
I am affraid my english may not be correct.
Has anybody used or made tests of Voigtlander/Cosina 75mm ?
I have the 100/2.8 and 50/3.5, think the 85/2 to close from the 100mm.
I am interested with this 75mm.
An other possibility is to trade the 100 for 85 ;-)
I own also : OM1N 35/2.8 28/3.5 21/3.5.
The last, the more recent.
Use of WA, first experience, was very impressing for me.
Now I am still to far from the subject but I am learning...
