Fast and compact standard lens.

The standard lens for natural perspectives: This fast lens has a natural image angle that corresponds to ahuman eye view and is ideal for available-light situations, selective-focus shots. It delivers high-contrast images with high-resolution detail - even at its widest aperture, or down to its minimum focusing distance.

 

Fit for any situation

The know-how of Leica's engineers, together with the latest developments in manufacturing technology, has resulted in this outstanding standard lens. The Leica Summilux-M 50mm f/1.4 ASPH. delivers high-contrast images, with high-resolution detail, even at its widest aperture, and down to its minimum focusing distance. This is made possible by a number of factors including the use of a floating element, special glass types with unique refraction properties, and elements with aspherical surfaces. The properties of this lens not only make it ideal for any photo situation demanding a handy all-rounder with the natural image angle of the 50 mm standard focal length, but also for available light situations, selective-focus shots, and even fine art photography - usually the preserve of much larger formats. Its wide-ranging versatility also makes it a top choice in assembling a Leica M lens outfit.
