Diglloyd is testing the new Voigtlander 21mm f/1.4 lens and writes:

“Yes, you want this lens, right now! This is the best 21mm f/1.4 I have ever seen. Well, probably the best 21mm lens of any speed (DSLR or mirrorless) that I have seen.”

Fred Miranda also tested the new lens and concludes:

Is the new Voigtlander 21/1.4 Nokton the new king of the hill at 21mm?
In terms of resolution and contrast, the Voigtlander 21/1.4 Nokton performs very similar if not better than the Zeiss Loxia 21/2.8 which is something no other E-mount lens was able to achieve until now. It’s taller and 166g heavier than the Loxia but in exchange, it’s capable of gathering 4 times more light and field curvature is super low.
Compared to the Sony FE 24/1.4 GM, the CV 21/1.4 is sharper at the center at wider apertures and is capable of higher contrast but can’t compete with the FE 24/1.4 GM’s smooth rendering, especially at mid-distance. Wide open, It’s also not as sharp away from center compared to the GM.

The Voigtländer 21mm F1.4 Nokton (1400 euros) is one of the best wide angle lens of its category (20-21mm) , one that is a pleasure to use and with results that will always positively surprise you when viewed on a big screen.

Sounds super! Want to get my hands on it too :)

The new Voigtlander Nokton 21mm f/1.4 FE lens is in Stock at Amazon, BHphoto and Adorama.
