This retro edition lens is modelled on a screw mount lens produced at the Leitz factory in Wetzlar from 1955 to 1963. Its unmistakable signature is almost impossible to reproduce by digital means and makes the lens a true classic that is now reborn in a revised edition, with exactly the same optical properties. The fact that this is no simple reconstruction is obvious at first sight: the design of the Summaron-M has been refined down to the essentials, without losing any of the character of its legendary ancestor.

Leica Camera has introduced a next-generation model of its classic M lenses:
the Leica Elmarit-M 28 mm f/2.8 ASPH. each delivering enhanced image performance and quality, thanks to their new optical design.

The Elmarit-M 28 mm f/2.8 ASPH. is the most compact lens in the entire portfolio of Leica M lenses. Thanks to its small size and light weight, this lens is a particular favourite with street and reportage photographers. Compared to the previous model, this new generation lens offers significantly reduced image field curvature, which brings considerably improved image performance with high resolution and brilliant resolution of details. The Elmarit-M 28 mm f/2.8 ASPH. is practically distortion-free from infinity to its closest focusing distance of 0.7 metres, and provides an exceptionally clear view through the Leica M viewfinder.

A new generation of 28mm Summicron

Ex-Display Lens 

Comes with 2 year worldwide Leica warranty

Leica are pleased to announce a new member of the Leica M-System family:-

Leica Summilux-M 28mm f/1.4 ASPH., black anodized finish.

This expands the Leica M System lenses portfolio with this exciting new high speed wide-angle lens.

Characteristics:-
- This is the first Leica M Lens to combine an initial aperture of f/1.4 with the popular 28mm wide-angle focal length.
- The 28mm focal length makes this lens not only ideal for photo journalism but also for architecture and landscapes and in all lighting situations.
- Extreme sharpness in the plane of focus and very shallow depth of field, enables subjects to be isolated with crystal clarity.
- Exceptional imaging performance over the entire focusing range and outstanding contrast rendition even in the finest structures.
- Excellent reproduction of details across the whole image field.
- Manufactured using the very best materials, assembled completely by hand.

Leica Camera has introduced a next-generation model of its classic M lenses:
the Leica Summicron-M 35 mm f/2 ASPH.each delivering enhanced image performance and quality, thanks to their new optical design.

The impressive Summicron-M 35 mm f/2 ASPH. fast, classic prime lens delivers superior image performance and a unique bokeh. Despite its high speed and exceptional image quality, its dimensions are astoundingly compact. Furthermore, with its eleven blade iris, this new generation lens creates a circular aperture, lending out of focus areas an extremely smooth look and feel. Images are pin-sharp with rich contrast, and almost completely free from distortion with superb bokeh at all apertures and distances and even when shooting wide open.

The compact APO-Summicron-M 35 f/2 ASPH. pushes the limits of the technology to deliver uncompromising optical performance. With a minimum focusing distance that is rarely found within the M-System, the new lens provides an even greater scope for creativity.
A masterpiece of German engineering for next-level authenticity.

The ten lens elements are divided into five groups; three elements feature aspherical surfaces (one of them on both sides). Six elements are made of glasses with anomalous partial dispersion, which not only reduce chromatic aberrations to almost zero, but also provide apochromatic correction ?a quality that is rarely found in lenses of this focal length.

Close focus distance up to 0.4 m

Possible by a patent-pending double cam unit newly developed by Leica engineers. As a result, the rotation angle of the focus ring could be almost doubled to 176°in comparison to the previous model – with the same compact size of the lens.

With the goal of creating a lens that fully exploits the opportunities offered by high-resolution camera systems, Leica?s engineers have successfully redefined the limits of what is technically possible. The result is an extremely high-performance lens that sets entirely new standards, and currently represents exceptional talent amongst the standard lenses of the Leica M portfolio. This new reference lens has achieved the best test results ever seen in the Leica M-Lens programme. The MTF curves of the Leica APO-Summicron-M 50mm f/2 ASPH., which describe the contrast of fine details and, in turn, the image sharpness, confirm its outstanding performance.

The tried and well-proven optical design of this lens provides for a perfection of picture quality extending all the way to the extreme corners of the image field even at full aperture, as well as outstanding contrast throughout, at all apertures, even at close distances. Stopping down to f/2.8 or f/4 brings only a minimal increase in contrast. Distortion is extremely low and practically invisible. Its well-balanced design makes this ideal standard lens an outstanding choice in terms of all criteria, including image quality, speed, size, weight and price. It is also available in combination with the LEICA M7 as part of the entry-level set.

Legendary Lenses, Reimagined

The Leica Classic Line is dedicated to re issuing historical Leica lenses whose specific imaging characteristics cannot be

created either by modern lenses, nor in digital post processing

While the exterior design is carefully adapted to complement the contemporary lenses of the M System, the optical design

of the original lens design remains unchanged

Carefully adapted in line with modern lens design, the Leica Noctilux-M 50 f/1.2 ASPH. marks the return of one of the most famous lenses made for the Leica M-System.

Its light sensitivity (which is enormous even by today?s standards) further contributed to the Noctilux?slegendary status ?as did its unique aesthetic: images captured at open aperture are imbued with a soft, almost dreamlike quality ?creating an unmistakable look with an exquisite bokeh.

Technically based on Noctilux M 50 f/1.2 ASPH. Outer parts in glossy black paint finish. White inked scales | feet scale red inked. Classic round lens hood glossy black paint. Packaging with classic transparent lens container

The LEICA NOCTILUX-M 50 mm f/0.95 ASPH. is not only a unique high-performance lens in the M system. It combines extremely high speed with imaging performance that can easily bear comparison with the other top lenses currently on the market. It is made of high-quality materials and intricately assembled by hand at the Solms factory to give a particularly reliable product that will retain its value for decades. The combination of state-of-the-art technology and meticulous craftsmanship based on skill and experience ensure the constant quality of every single Leica lens, once again widening the creative potential of Leica M photography.
