The Leica Summilux-M 50mm f/1.4 ASPH is a fast, versatile standard lens designed for the Leica M-mount system. Offering an f/1.4 maximum aperture, this lens excels in low-light situations and allows precise control over depth of field. Its sophisticated optical design features one aspherical element, floating lens elements, and special glass types with anomalous partial dispersion to minimise aberrations and deliver high-contrast images with exceptional resolution, even at full aperture and at its close minimum focusing distance. The lens features a built-in retractable hood and 46mm filter thread, making it an essential addition to any Leica M photographer's kit. Manual focus operation combined with the lens's natural 50mm perspective makes it ideal for documentary, street, portrait, and fine art photography.
