The Leica APO-Summicron-M 50mm f/2 ASPH. Lens is a versatile prime lens thats ideal for use in everyday shooting situations and combines key features that include sharpness with outstanding corner-to-corner contrast rendition, even when the aperture is fully open.

Advanced technology such as the floating element ensures that this is retained, even when photographing really close-up shots; and features a lens construction that consists of eight lens elements that are used to achieve exceptional performance and image quality. Features that contribute to blistering speed and image quality include apochromatic correction to minimise chromatic aberration to ensure natural rendition of every detail; one aspherical element that reduces spherical aberrations for enhanced sharpness; a bright f/2.0 aperture that excels well in low-light conditions; and a manual focus design that provides you with a minimum focusing distance of 70 cm and with a maximum magnification ratio of 1:11.3.
