Leica Summilux-M 50mm f/1.4 ASPH. Overview
Combining a timeless vintage appearance with an optical redesign, the Summilux-M 50mm f/1.4 Lens from Leica is a fast normal-length prime for M-mount system cameras. An ideal choice for portraiture, this manual-focusing lens creates a soft and flattering bokeh when used at wider apertures and sharp, detailed imagery when stopped down. As with previous Summilux lenses, this 50mm f/1.4 is distinguished by its impressive maximum aperture of f/1.4, which allows working reliably in dimly lit scenes.
Crafted to replicate the unique bokeh produced from the original version of this lens released in 1959, this modernized rendition incorporates the latest manufacturing techniques, glass elements, and lens coatings to ensure excellent optical performance. This lens marks the fifth addition to the Leica Classic Line and is the first in the brand's newly designed packaging.
- The included vintage lens hood prevents unwanted light from entering the lens and offers added protection against accidental impacts.
- The optical design features 7 elements in 5 groups as well as a 12-bladed diaphragm for producing high-quality images and improved bokeh.
- The front of the lens is threaded to accept 46mm screw-in filters.
