As previously reported, Cosina will announce and display two new Voigtlander M-mount lens (VM) prototypes at the 2026 CP+ show in Pacifico Yokohama starting February 26, 2026. Here is a recap of the new/upcoming lenses:
Voigtlander Apo-Lanthar 90mm f/4 close focus lens VM mount

Voigtlander UV filters
- Function: Absorbs UV rays below 417nm with a sharp cut-off, preventing color shifts; effective as a protective filter, especially for cameras sensitive to UV affecting color reproduction.
- Build: High-quality flat-polished glass to avoid impacting lens performance; water-repellent coating for easy cleaning.
- Sizes and Variants: Available in diameters from 34mm to 82mm; silver finish options from 34mm to 58mm. Knurling and finish match Voigtlander lenses for aesthetic consistency.
- Other Notes: Prototype exhibit; blocks UV at the light entry point for better effect.

보익도 가만히 있을 수 없죠..ㅎ CP+쇼에서 공개할 렌즈들을 소개했네요.
75망원과 90망원렌즈 두개의 APO 버전을 내놓을 것 같습니다.
조리개는 살짝 아쉬움이 있지만 그래도 크기가 컴팩트하면서 APO 렌즈로서의 화질을 챙겼고,
90미리는 Close Focus 도 갖췄나 보네요.
꾸준히 사랑받는 보익답게 깔끔하게 잘 만들어 내놓은 느낌입니다.
