Best camera for the voigtl nder macro apo lanthar 65mm f 2 aspherical?

The 65mm f/2 is a 1:2 macro that also works as a short portrait lens, and it's manual focus with no stabilisation, so pick a body you're happy to focus by hand. Full frame is the natural match, since it frames as marked at 65mm.

• Sony a7R V: a full-frame Sony body that fits the lens, and a sensible pick if you want detail in close-up work.
• Nikon Z7 II: the best choice if you're already in the Nikon Z system.
• Sony a7 IV: a more everyday full-frame body that still suits this lens.
• Sony a6700: an APS-C option. The lens then frames like about 98mm and gives the depth of field of roughly f/3, which can suit tighter portraits.

If you're weighing full frame against a smaller sensor, the sensor sizes guide covers the trade-offs.
