By the way, I forgot to mention that unlike most manual focus lenses, the Z mount Voigtländers lenses communicate with Z bodies through electrical contacts similarly to autofocus lenses. That is probably an important consideration when creating an optics module since these lenses pass metadata to the body.

Pre-ordering of these lenses have begun 
It very definitely is and I already knew it from a friend who likes his Voigtländers in front of his Sony bodies.
Lately I also realized that there are banks for manual focus lenses within the D850. I can save not only FL values, but also aperture values of 9 different manual (or non-electrical) lenses. If I would not forget to switch from No. 4 which could be a, say, 200 mm macro with f/4 to No. 5, maybe a 15 mm f/5.6 I’d had kind of at least two important parameters.
And if the RAW converter could read out these values.
And if the RAW converter would also give me the opportunity to sort of create a promoted lens profile with distortion, vignetting and aberration values.
Then using manual lenses together with EXIF would still not contain the actually used aperture (important for countervignetting). But it would be a start.
The Voigtländers designed for the Z mount do pass the aperture being used to the camera and I can see it in the viewfinder in exactly the same way as any AF lens. The only difference is that the aperture is controlled by the aperture ring on the lens rather than by one of the control dials on my camera.
Other than not having the ability to autofocus, I believe that in every other way they communicate with the camera body like an autofocus lens. With the addition of the electrical contacts it turns a manual focus lens into sort of a hybrid. With regard to handling and build it is 100% manual, but with the contacts It acts more like you have in autofocus lens mounted.

I think the body contacts are there to get used and I’m often happy to see which aperture I used for a certain photo. So, good Voigtländer thought along the same line.
Hi, is there any chance GoPro that cameras get supported as well?
Hi, it’s been mentioned a few times but can Viltrox get some love? The 13mm for Fuji has corrections in lightroom and it’s literally the only reason why I’m still with lightroom. The new 75mm f1.2 is expected to be a huge seller also so it would be great to have that after release to. If you did I could finally ditch lightroom.
Hello,
on 15 February 2023 we have added support of new cameras and lenses for DxO PhotoLab 5, DxO PureRAW 2, DxO FilmPack 6, DxO ViewPoint 4 and Nik Collection 5. This was already done for DxO PhotoLab 6 a week ago.
Cameras newly supported are
Lenses newly supported are
See DxO Supported Cameras & Lenses for compatibility of Optic modules with PhotoLab.
In March we will add support of
Notes:
This is final list
It will contain fix for M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 150-400mm F4.5 TC1.25x IS PRO with TC x2.0.
In April we will add support of
Notes:
List is in progress.
This will contain fix for Sigma cameras with Panasonic S 20-60mm.

Thank you for the update
Hello Marie,
nice that you for April that Sigma 150-600mm F5-6.3 DG DN OS S - L-mount published.
But that’s missing from the list Sigma 150-600mm F5-6.3 DG DN OS S with TC-1411 - L-mount !
Many photographers don’t use the TC-2011 because it makes the images very soft. That’s why many use the TC-1411.
Please also support the TC-1411!
Greetings
Thomas
Hello @tom58 ,
I should have mentioned it but it’s just we don’t have the TC 1.4x at the moment, so it will be supported as soon as we can.
Marie
Hello Marie,
shall I lend you my TC-1411?
Greetings
Thomas
Hello Marie,
I just got off the phone with Sigma Photo Support Germany. They have said that they will try to solve the problem of the missing TC-1411 from DXO. They will try to address this internally at Sigma Foto so that support for the TC-1411 can be implemented.
Greetings
Thomas
Marie,
Disappointed the Nikon 400 4.5 isn’t on any of the lists mentioned above. Wasn’t surprised the 800PF isn’t either though, since it is so difficult to obtain.
Is there any update on sigma 20mm f1.4 dg dn for l mount?
Thank you for this update. Do you know when DXO will support Nikon Z9 high efficiency RAW files? Capture 1 and Lightroom have had this ability for ages.
I believe the issue is that DXO want to use Deep Prime, I asked a question a few months ago and got a rather no committal response. It’s a shame they don’t just add it even without deep prime
Bonsoir @Marie
Aurions nous la chance de voir les Samyang 45mm f1.8 et 24mmf1.8 en monture FE Sony ?
Merci et bonne soirée
