Serial number 1364904, a 1956 collapsible Leica Summicron 5cm f\/2 in LTM mount, came along just late enough to dodge the Lanthanum glass experiment of 1953, which means it won't slowly turn yellow like a smoker's teeth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"\u003eWhat it is, however, is everything Leica does well when they're not busy irradiating their optics.

A Voigtländer executive stares at a folding camera prototype with the expression of someone who's just realized they're about to design something magnificent that almost nobody will be able to afford. Fewer than 300 Bessa IIs with the 105mm f\/4.5 Apo-Lanthar lens would be made between 1954 and 1956, making it one of the rarest medium format folding rangefinders ever produced. It's the photographic equivalent of German optical aristocracy: impeccably bred, exquisitely crafted, and so scarce that owning one feels less like a purchase and more like a coronation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1514\" data-start=\"744\"\u003eBuilt in Germany, the Bessa II combines precise engineering with a compact folding design that delivers large 6x9 negatives. Its coupled rangefinder ensures accurate focusing, while the rare six-element Apo-Lanthar lens, with its distinctive red, green, and black rings, provides apochromatic correction and exceptional sharpness thanks to lanthanum glass. Discovered in 1839 and first used by Kodak in the 1930s, lanthanum enabled sharp, colour-accurate lenses and powered Voigtländer's 1949 Apo-Lanthar for true apochromatic correction. Non-radioactive and safe, it marked a major advance in lens design and remains foundational to high-performance optics today. This is German optical pedigree at its finest: precision, innovation, and a touch of chemical wizardry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1926\" data-start=\"1516\"\u003eThe Bessa II could also use a rare 6x4.5cm mask, allowing sixteen smaller frames on 120 film instead of eight 6x9 frames. A full set included a metal film gate mask and a viewfinder mask, though original masks are scarce. This example includes the film gate mask, though not the viewfinder mask, which is a bit like owning a Porsche without the owner's manual. Annoying, but the car still drives beautifully.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"2255\" data-start=\"1928\"\u003eComplete Apo-Lanthar Bessa II sets with the original box, leather case, paperwork, and inspector's card are even rarer. With so few cameras made, perishable materials rarely survived, and accessories were often lost. A full set such as this one, especially with the signed inspection card, is a unique and highly prized find.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"2577\" data-start=\"2257\"\u003eIn the end, the Bessa II with Apo-Lanthar lens is what happens when German engineers decide rarity equals desirability and proceed accordingly. Fewer than 300 made. Apochromatic correction. Lanthanum glass. It's magnificently impractical and impossibly rare. Which, for German optical pedigree, is precisely the point.\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(179, 179, 179);\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Voigtlander","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47169172242619,"sku":"VGT-BES-RF-KIT-EX-100014","price":9888.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0645\/6960\/6331\/files\/VGT-BES-RF-KIT-EX-100014-voigtlander-bessa-ii-apo-lanthar-rangefinder-medium-format-vintage-film-camera-used-0009-front-I.jpg?v=1769815952"},{"product_id":"voigtlander-40mm-optical-viewfinder-sees-all","title":"Voigtländer 40mm Optical Viewfinder","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cb id=\"docs-internal-guid-bb47de12-7fff-33d3-710f-555027c38fa2\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWHAT CONDITION THE CONDITION IS IN: 88-Day Confirmed Operation Warranty. \u003cstrong\u003eA fine example with clear glass and the original box.

It's not quite the wide embrace of 35mm, not quite the comfortable intimacy of 50mm. It's the middle distance focal length, the compromise that somehow works better than either extreme. And if you're shooting 40mm on a rangefinder without dedicated framelines, you'll need a viewfinder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEnter the Voigtländer 40mm optical viewfinder, a lightweight, plastic-bodied accessory with clear glass optics made by Cosina in Japan. Yes, Japan. Because Voigtländer, the storied German optical house founded in 1756, is now owned by Cosina, a Japanese company that builds cameras and accessories under historic brand names. It's globalization in a hot shoe: German heritage, Japanese manufacturing, and everyone pretending not to notice the irony.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe viewfinder is simple yet reliable, doing exactly what it's designed to do: showing you what your 40mm lens sees. Plastic body, clear optics, no frills. It's the accessory equivalent of the 40mm focal length itself: unpretentious, functional, neither flashy nor apologetic. Cosina looked at the legacy of Voigtländer, a brand synonymous with German precision optics for over two centuries, and decided the best way to honour that heritage was to make affordable, well-designed accessories in Japan. It's a bit like discovering your favourite German beer is now brewed in Tokyo. Different, sure. But if it tastes good, does the origin story matter?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 40mm viewfinder slips into the hot shoe, frames your shot, and gets out of the way. It won't win design awards, but it'll help you compose with a focal length that's neither wide nor normal, neither dramatic nor boring. Just like 40mm itself: the sensible middle ground that nobody celebrates but everyone appreciates once they try it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the end, the Voigtländer 40mm viewfinder is peak modern optics: German name, Japanese build, 40mm sensibility. It's practical and quietly competent. Much like 40mm, it doesn't demand attention.
