It’s always hard to find deals in Europe. And I know many of us are jealous of all this constant US deals. So here is a real deal on my favorite lens, the Nokton 17.5mm. Usually you get the lens for 1.289,99 but you can finally have it for 1.019 Euro at [shoplink 35048 ebay]FotoMundus eBay (Click here)[/shoplink].
This is definitely the one lens I would pickup for my everyday shooting. And if you want to read some review just check out Lepidi, Admiringlight and Pekka Potka’s articles.

Looks like that where there is no Euroe there is party 🙂
Thats the 25mm Nokton, which costs around 650€ in central europe.
US price drop please 🙂
Don’t your prices commonly have same number as in here with just dollar sign after it despite of dollars lower value?
I wouldn’t see much reason to complain in that situation.
You don’t save anything with this lens, just loose 5-600EUR, because you won’t sell it for more than 3-400€ in 3 years.
Useful IQ starts at around f/2 (see http://www.lenstip.com/350.4-Lens_review-Voigtlander_Nokton_17.5_mm_f_0.95_Aspherical_Image_resolution.html), here the lightweight Pana 1.7/20 is also perfect, no point of carrying around this brick…
“Useful IQ starts at around f/2”
Dunno bout that: tonight I took about 150 shots of a friends BBQ – all at f0.95 – and funnily enough they were all ‘usuable’. They were quite nice actually…
Lol, no point ? It’s not for everyone, and it doesn’t have to be, in fact it wouldn’t be a specialty lens if it was best choice for everyone. It is a hot seller, perfect for many people and will be for a long time. And hold it’s value even longer.
Lol ! In fact you don’t save anything with any lens…Do you know a lens you will sell more in 3 years ?? maybe some very old lenses for collectors but that all…and lenses with electronic components are dedicated to die sooner or later…If you want something you will sell more in 3 years buy a house, gold or oil but for the house I’m not sure…
It is so good, not to sharp at the widest apertures, but images are so beautiful there. I have the Panasonic 20 also, but you can’t get the same result with it. f0.95 and f1.4 are quite different than f1.7 and 17.5mm is appreciable different than 20mm to. I love this lens and highly recommend it. Forget the reviews, here the lens aberrations combine to produce beautiful images. The annoying CA and fringing are easily eliminated in Lightroom.

Yes that right forget the MF, the reviews ,the price,the reality that the DOF is the same as an F1.8 on FF it can all be fixed in Photoshop , except the price lol
Not forgetting it doesn’t perform till F2 now we are getting a FF f4 35mm lens performance bargain.
you’re such a dumb envious troll.
Beautiful lens and I’m sure it’s a stunning performer but is it that difficult for the third party lens makers to make an AF lens?
0.95 yes very difficult !! Tell me where you put contacts? 😀 there is no space in m4/3 mount…
So it’s the lack of space that makes AF implementation impossible? Do you think they can make a f1.0 AF lens?
HUH? Why would you ruin a lens like the Voigtländer 17.5mm, or the 25mm for that matter, with autofocus?
Some of us actually PREFER manual lenses and manual focus over AF. Buy an AF zoom and be happy.
Buy it from mainline photographics in sydney much cheaper than anywhere else..
You’re right – 883 EUR equivalent, excellent price!
We no longer need this lens. 17/1.8 will blow away this bulky one surely.
Wow you are so smart. Good thing you told us this.
Check out the review on lenstip.com: it clearly says the 17mm/1.8 does not such thing as to blow any lens out of the water.
… because the 17mm has an “OLYMPUS” written on it, right.
The olympus brand guarantees ultimate superiority… not just photographic… right?
How could any lens, at any price, beat an Olympus lens? I just don’t ee it happening… EVERRRRRRRR. 😛
Alright alright, that’s enough troll feed for now 😛
