FWIW, I have four Voigtlander lenses (for the Bessa RF bodies) that I
believe are made by Cosina.  The Bessa bodies are anyway.  They are, to a
lens, some of the best I have ever had the pleasure to use.  Sharp as hell
and contrasty, even the fast ones.  The 35mm 1.7 and the 50mm 1.5 are
awesome!  And the 15mm is a great lens even if it is seldom used.  Lives on
a Bessa L all the time since it needs a viewfinder anyway.  They are making
lenses to fit N*k*n RFs and Contax RF as well as some SLR lenses (maybe some
to fit OM, hence the name even being brought up<g>.  Of course, the four I
have are preset.  No auto iris on a rangefinder!!
