Is the voigtl nder apo lanthar 50mm f 2 aspherical worth buying used?

Yes, I think it's a good candidate for buying used. The Voigtländer APO-Lanthar 50mm f/2 Aspherical is known for very high sharpness and no colour fringing, and a lens's optics don't wear out the way a body's sensor or shutter can. It's manual focus and not stabilised, so check that you're happy with that before you buy. It fits Sony E, Nikon Z and Leica M, and on Sony E or Nikon Z APS-C bodies it frames like about 75mm.

Check the condition of the glass and the focus ring, since those matter most on a manual lens. For general used-buying advice, see buying used.
