$1000 vs $9000. Leica 50 APO M vs Voigtlander 50 APO M

Here I thought the law of diminishing returns was only strong in audio... :D

Evidently not!

$1000 vs $9000. Leica 50 APO M vs Voigtlander 50 APO M

A quick comparison against the $9000 Leica 50 APO and the $1000 Voigtlander 50 APO. Two lenses cut from the same kind of cloth (manual focus, M mount, 50mm APO designs) except one is a little smaller and costs $9000 while the other comes in at $1000. The Voigtlander 50 APO is an amazing M mount lens and gets eerily close to the Leica for thousands less.

Or what about a Hasselblad H6D-100 at $32k or Phase One XL with the 150 MP back for $54,000? It never ends ...

Hasselblad H6D 100 megapixel ...

You can now get the Hasselblad X2D 100 megapixel for $9,000. I just picked one up. Fabulous camera body.
