Voigtlander Color-Skopar 35mm f/2.5 LTM - Difference between C-type and P-type?

[Grephenson]

Obviously I know there's a size/weight difference, but is one known to be better than the other?

The 35/2.5 C, 35/2.5 PI, 35/2.5 PII and 35/2.5 SC in Nikon Rangefinder mount all share the same optics.

The OP was asking about LTM mount not Nikon RF. However the three versions have the same 7 elements in 5 groups lens formula with 10 blade aperture. The differences are 35/2.5 C and 35/2.5 P are LTM only, the 35/2.5 PII is M mount only. The 35/2,5 C has 39mm filter mount and focuses to 0.7m, the 35/2.5 P has 43mm filter mount and focuses to 0.9m, the 35/2.5 PII has 39mm filter mount and focuses to 0.7m. There are small differences in size and weight.

i know. That statement includes the Nikon RF mount, as well as the others. it is stating they are all the same optically. SC means Nikon mount.
