When we published the Voigtlander Color Skopar 20 mm f/3.5 SL II Aspherical and the Voigtlander Ultron 40 mm f/2 SL II Aspherical lens tests once again we were questioned about the differences between resolution results presented on the Optyczne.
As we are often asked similar questions - on the forum, in mail and in comments under tests and news as well, we decided to start a FAQ section which we are going to enlarge successively. Enjoy your reading! Why do you use just one specimen of lens, camera or binoculars in your tests? Why do you test lenses on such an old body as a Canon EOS 20D? Why don’t you test vividness, colours and bokeh? Why do results, presented on the Lenstip.

Originally posted 2009-10-28 on Optyczne.pl Our articles series about the 50th anniversary of the Nikon F mount and the 90th anniversary of the Olympus company were ended by duels between old and new lenses of a given manufacturer.
While preparing our polarizing filters test supplement we decided to update also our UV filters test which lacked the Cokin company products. The Cokin filters system is very popular among more demanding users because it allows them more freedom of action when working with filters (especially gradiating filters).

Originally posted 2009-07-06 on Optyczne.pl As our first articles, comparing old lenses with their modern counterparts on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the F bayonet mount, have been very popular, both in Poland and abroad, we decided to present a similar comparison of the Olympus lenses.
Originally posted 2009-04-23 on Optyczne.pl The second part of our duels of the oldest and the youngest lenses, equipped with an F bayonet mount, will still revolve around 50 mm focal lengths so those, which are the equivalent of a classic, full frame standard.
