Cosina Voigtländer (often abbreviated CV) refers to photographic products manufactured by Cosina under the Voigtländer name since 1999. Cosina leases rights to the Voigtländer name from RINGFOTO GmbH & Co. ALFO Marketing KG in Germany. Cosina Voigtländer products have included 35mm film SLR and rangefinder camera bodies, and lenses for the M39 lens mount (Leica screw mount), M42 lens mount, Leica M mount, and other lens mounts.

Lenses Cosina started producing cameras and lenses under the Voigtländer brand in 1999, when it introduced a new M39 mount body and lenses. It has since produced a prodigious variety of these lenses in M39x26, Leica M mount, Nikon S rangefinder mount (some fully usable with Contax RF bodies), and SLR mounts including M42 and Nikon F. Cosina produces hoods and accessory viewfinders for many of the lenses. Note that while the lenses feature familiar Voigtländer names, the optical formulas are all new.

Presently, manual focus Voigtländer lenses are available, or will soon be available in four series: the E-mount series for Sony E-mount, the VM series for Leica M-mount, the SL and SL II series for several 35 mm single-lens reflex camera mounts (Canon EF-mount, Nikon F-mount, and Pentax K-mount), and the MFT series for the Micro Four Thirds mount. Legacy lenses for the M39 lens mount, Nikon S-mount and M42 lens mount have been discontinued.

Most of the traditional Voigtländer lens brand names remain in use with Cosina, though the lens designs used by Cosina are generally different from the historical namesakes. However, Heliar lenses will still generally have slow apertures, Noktons are for fast apertures, APO-Lanthars will have above-average correction of chromatic aberrations and use many low-dispersion glass elements, while Skopars are compact and light lenses.

Nikon Z-mount

Cosina offers the following lenses with Nikon Z-mount as of 2023. These lenses offer electronic coupling to the camera for recording Exif data, focus confirmation and IBIS activation.

35 mm SLR lenses (SL II series) Voigtländer SL II lenses are CPU-enabled manual-focus designs available in Nikon AI-P (AI-S with Program), Pentax K-A and Canon EF mounts. The Nikon term for such a design is AI-P, although these lenses are not designated as such. The CPU of SL lenses enables full compatibility (except for autofocus) with the full range of AF Nikon SLR cameras.

The Nikon AI-P versions enable full compatibility (except for autofocus) with all Nikon AF SLRs, similar to the AI-P manual-focus lenses Nikon has produced in the past. All metering patterns in 2-D mode, all program modes, and viewfinder focus indicators are available.

SL series

Voigtländer SL lenses are manual-focus designs. They were sold in a variety of mounts: Nikon AI-S, Canon FD, Pentax K, M42, Minolta SR, Contax/Yashica MM, and Olympus OM. Some lenses were also available in Canon EF- and Minolta A-mount, although without autofocus. They were produced for a short time, and discontinued when Cosina introduced its Carl Zeiss "Z" series lenses.
