Description

The optical structure of the Leica Normal 50mm f1.4 Summilux M Aspherical Manual Focus Lens, Black consists of eight lens in 5 groups. Glass with anomalous partial dispersion (elements 2/3) was used to ensure correct color rendition. Lens element 2 is made of a fluorite-type glass while lens element 3 is made from glass originating from the former Leitz glass laboratory. Lens element 4 has an aspherical surface. Lens elements 1, 6 and 7 are made of glass with a very high refractive index to minimize monochromatic aberrations. In all every innovation currently available in lens technology - aspherical lenses, glass with anomalous partial dispersion (APO), glass with a high refraction index and a floating element - has been combined to create a lens that will set new imaging standards. This is the first Leica M lens with a specifically patented 'floating element' used to maintain imaging performance at a very high level even in close-focus ranges down to 0.7m. During focusing, the rearmost optical component (elements 7/8) moves relative to the rest of the optical system and produces brilliant image quality in near focus ranges. To maximize the benefits of the 'floating element' an extremely precise adjusting mechanism has also been utilized that had to fit into the restricted space inside this compact M-lens At full aperture, the LEICA SUMMILUX-M 50mm f/1.4 ASPH. offers high contrast rendering even for the finest structures. This performance can only be raised slightly by stopping down. Another notable feature of this lens is that it is virtually distortion-free. The normal vignetting for such high-speed lenses at full aperture is strongly reduced by stopping down slightly. Furthermore, the use of the most advanced coating technology ensures a high degree of anti-glare. The LEICA SUMMILUX-M 50mm f/1.4 ASPH. also offers special features in terms of its handling: The built- in lens hood not only provides protection against stray light and dust, it can also be

    • It’s worth the wait
I have wanted this lens for many years. It’s expensive but like no other. I have compromised by buying fast 50’s from other manufacturers in the past. While they’re good, they don’t quite perform like Leica lenses. Good glass is a lifetime investment.

    • Wow, just wow!
At first I was petrified in spending so much on a lens (note, I even bought mine used for less than retail), but upon seeing the results, I'm quite stunned. It renders the out of focus areas (bokeh) unlike any other lens I've ever tried (and I even own the Canon 85 f1.2 for my DSLR), and the color rendition is so creamy, like eye candy! If you have either Leica M or Sony A7 series with adapter, I can highly recommend this lens! My only complaint is the insane price. ... show more

    • I rarely write reviews but imo this is the best 50mm lens in the market right now
I rarely write reviews but imo this is the best 50mm lens in the market right now. The bokeh is so beautiful and creamy and WOW !!! is soo...clear and sharp when stopped down to f2. You get what you pay for but the price is well-deserved!!!

    • If I could only have one lens for the rest of my life, this would be it.
I use my 50mm Summilux more than any other lens; usually I bring nothing else with me. On a full frame camera, 50mm does everything. Wide open, it gives photos a timeless and beautiful 3D appearance, with creamy out-of-focus areas, giving photos that unique "Leica look." This is that lens. Get one, take care of it, and you'll use it for the rest of your life. ... show more

    • Terrific Lens
I've been a leica shooter for many years. I had wanted to buy the 50 Summilux or Summicron APO for several years, and choosing between the two was difficult. While both lenses are at the top in quality terms, they have different characteristics. It might be easy to regard the more expensive Summicron as superior to the Summilux, but I think now, that it is better to not put them on the same ladder. Time will mature this opinion, but so far shooting with the Summilux has been just what I was hoping for. The IQ is terrific and the 50 joins my trusted 35 Summilux in aiding my reportage, portrait and landscape photography. I'm very happy with this lens. ... show more
