Reviews:

Amazon 4.7 out of 5 stars 15 verified buyer reviews

• Used extensively by the one-and-only Ken Rockwell: "It's a joy to use: its focus feels better than my Nikon lenses! I never thought it would come to this, but this Voigtländer lens is better than Nikon's own lenses: it has better optics, better mechanics, and better ergonomics. How about that! 40mm is the ideal normal lens. It's never too long like a 50mm, and never too short like a 35mm."

( Review is for Voigtländer 40mm f/2 SL-II, but you're getting the updated version which is the Voigtländer 40mm f/2 SL-II-N )

End of very detailed review summates: "The Voigtländer 40mm f/2 SL-II is an optically and ergonomically superb lens. I am quite surprised, as this is the first time I've ever seen a lens whose optics and ergonomics I prefer to Nikon's own classic manual-focus lenses."
 
* Steve Huff rocks too, offering some very worthwhile extra reading on this exact lens provided by French Engineer Julien Hautcoeur living in Canada who is an actual user (and a pretty good writer too):

• And…make sure to see what other buyers said in response to his review.
