VoigtlanderCosina new Contax rangefinder mount body and lenses

Has anybody heard whether the voigtlaender bodies have arrived in Germany yet?
 
Servus Marc!

I think due to the article in fotomagazin it should be available very soon.

Hi folks!

I just got the information, that the Bessa R2C will be available in April, together with 3 lenses: 21,25,35. Price will be € 999,00.

I just received the 25mm Skopar for my Contax 11a. It is very well built, and handles smoothly. The viewfinder is bright and clear, and seems brighter than any Leica viewfinder I have ever had. I bought the lens (which comes with viewfinder, lens hood, focus-assistance knurled ring and both lens caps) from Stephen Gandy - cost $475. I rate this lens as a bargain, and it has expanded my 11a's capabilities. Now I want to save up for the 21mm, as I can't seem to find a 21mm Biogon in my price bracket !
 
I'm new here...
Just got a Bessa R2C (not so expensive found on ebay for 575$)... used it and found that except the noisy shutter it was a pleasure and that my contax lenses where at their best with it, surely the 85 with a large 85 bright frame...
Was... because It was stolen yesterday... with my L*** M6 and far more unpleasant two nice lenses.

In case: Sonnar 50/2 T 2202035 (yes, a very early coated lens) and Sonnar-Opton 85/2 T sn 840076 are STOLEN goods... If you find them... beware, and inform me...
 
Thanks, may be in one or two weeks... I think that they will end in a contax lover collection, or they will throwed to a bin because the guy would not know wat he was stealing... Sad...
 
Are there MTF-Diagrams of the Voigtlaender lenses available on the net??? Classiccamera cites some but I didn't have seen some. (And, Yes, I have read all that stuff on the Leica pages)

Together with my Contax 139/ 180 Sonnar, 85 Planar, and Rollei 35S, I have a Bessa-L with the 15mm for 3 years now. Brings a lot of fun due to its small size/ low weight, and great pictures!

Now I consider buying another wideangle (21 or 25). Who has the infos??

thanks,
