In many cases, our lenses are compatible with or can be adapted to current cameras. Classic lenses generally do not have autofocus. For further information, please contact your specialist dealer.

Please only use high-quality adapters, e.g., original Voigtländer. The use of "no-name" adapters may lead to imaging errors or mechanical damage under certain circumstances.

Of course, our lenses can also be used here. However, please note the change in the angle of view due to the crop factor.

Many optics from the "analog" era work on current digital cameras, provided the mount is compatible and the flange focal distance is correct. Please note that the focal length specification for older interchangeable lenses always refers to the dimensions of 35mm film in analog cameras. Due to the often smaller sensor size of digital cameras, the focal length must be converted (crop factor). Furthermore, it must be assumed that the camera's automatic functions are not supported by the lens and must be set manually (shutter speed, aperture, distance). In general, a series of tests is required to determine whether the respective combination of camera and lens is capable of satisfactory handling and imaging performance.

Please note that the built-in lens hood is an important factor in the lens's imaging performance. Any interference with the lens construction will result in the voiding of any warranty or guarantee claims.
