Just found two Voigländer lens deals. May MicroFourThirds camera are interested in those lenses…
Voigtlander Super Wide Heliar 15mm f/4.5 M Mount Lens – Black (Read the review from Ken Rockwell)
and
Voigtlander Ultron 28mm f/2.0 Lens with Leica Screw Mount – Black Good price and one stop faster than the Olympus 17mm f/2.8 lens.

You can get the 15/4.5 Heliar with the OVF from Camera Quest for $399.
Ummm, you can get the Leica-M version of the 28/2.0 for 579.00$ from Cameraquest.com, who is the official seller in the US… And the 15mm is 549$…
The 15/4.5 doesn’t seem worth it when the standard 14-42 is 3.5 at 14mm. The 28/2.0 definitely looks attractive though.
The 15 f/4.5 seems to have an exceptional quality. It would be nice to compare it with the 14-42mm Olympus MFT lens.
@fotomik. Oops. Yep. You’re right. That’s the wrong lens. It is $549. 🙁
You need to update the headline. People may go buy those thinking it’s actually a “big discount” when really it’s pretty much the same old prices.
You are right Patrick! I’ve updated the post. Thanks!
As an FYI, I tried the CV Ultron 28/1.9 Asph on my G1 a while back… found it somewhat disappointing compared to the glowing reviews of it when used on the R-D1 and M8. Soft in the corners and low contrast unless stopped down. It’s possible I had a bad sample, but it could be due to sensor-lens compatibility issues…
That should be 1 stop faster instead of half for the F2 lens.
