The Leica Summilux-M 50mm f/1.4 ASPH. The lens features a unique matte black finish along with a classic exterior design akin to the first production run of this renowned lens. This sophisticated construction helps to reduce chromatic aberrations and distortions throughout the focusing and aperture ranges, which contribute to high overall sharpness and clarity. Pairing a classic outer design with innovative optical components, this black-chrome edition is the epitome of Leica’s penchant for mixing both form and function. One aspherical element and one floating element are incorporated within the optical design, along with anomalous partial dispersion and high refractive index glass elements, to control aberrations and distortions at all aperture and focus positions. Manual focus design provides a minimum focusing distance of 2.3′ with a maximum magnification ratio of 1:11.3.
