I was at a camera swap meeting in Vancouver, BC this morning and met a gentleman
with a Leica M6 fitted with a screw threaded 19mm Voigtlander lens which he said
was made by Cosina ........ there was some mention of Cosina having bought the
Voigtlander name recently.
Would this Voigtlander Cosina be the same Cosina as mentioned above?
