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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eClosest Focus in M-lens Portfolio - Up to 0.3m\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe APO-Summicron-M 35 f\/2 ASPH. quite literally goes one step further, by facilitating true close-up shots. Its minimum focusing distance of just 0.3m surpasses all previous M-lenses. With a beautifully engineered detent at 0.7m on the focus ring, the user can feel when the lens steps into the close-focus range and therefore know when they must switch to Live View on the screen or EVF on an M.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eConstruction Details\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe exceptional performance capability is made possible by the elaborate lens design, combined with the high precision manufacturing processes at the Leica production plant. 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, and a first for a 35 mm lens in the M-System.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eExtraordinary Through Tradition\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe APO-Summicron-M 35 f\/2 ASPH. represents a resolute take on a focal length that has long defined documentary photography. Owing to its optical performance, this lens distinguishes itself even within the M-Lens range. With its remarkably short close focus distance, outstanding sharpness, distinctive bokeh effect and impressive lens speed, this example of German craftsmanship opens up the widest creative potential. Here, every detail is clear, every tone nuance distinct, every texture vibrant – unembellished, yet delivered with a clarity that resonates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eA closer look.\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe APO-Summicron-M 35 f\/2 ASPH. quite literally goes one step further, by facilitating true close-up shots. Its minimum focusing distance of just 30 centimeters surpasses all previous M lenses. A floating lens element ensures exceptional rendition quality across the entire image at all distance settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe focus ring has a particularly large rotational throw of 300°, giving ample range for extremely precise focusing even throughout the extended close-focus range. In conjunction with its high light sensitivity, the APO-Summicron-M 35 f\/2 ASPH. takes compositional creativity to the next level. An exceptional lens for those once-in-a-lifetime Leica moments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eThe Strengths of the 35 mm Leica M-Lens\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThanks to apochromatic correction, the APO-Summicron-M 35 f\/2 ASPH. achieves exceptional sharpness and imaging quality even with an open aperture, remaining free from colour aberrations, even at high-contrast edges or under backlighting. The close focus distance of merely 30 centimeters greatly expands creative possibilities, particularly for expressive portraits or finely detailed urban scenes. The f\/2 lens speed enables natural separation and delivers a gentle yet well-defined bokeh effect. High-precision focusing ensures the creative scope of this focal length can be explored with exceptional attention to detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eDesign of the APO-Summicron-M 35 f\/2 ASPH.\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis piece of equipment features ten lenses arranged in five groups. These include four aspherical surfaces and multiple elements composed of special glass featuring anomalous partial dispersion. A floating element maintains consistently high image quality throughout the full focal range. The close focus distance of just 0.3 meters marks a first for M-Lenses in this category. Crafted in Wetzlar, Germany, the lens is produced to the most exacting standards. The outcome is a meticulously crafted lens that sets standards and remains reliable for decades.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eAn optical masterpiece.\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith its intricate design, special glass types and high-precision craftsmanship, the APO-Summicron-M 35 f\/2 ASPH. ranks among Leica’s most elaborately constructed lenses. The result: a close-to flawless imaging performance. Three of the ten lens elements (divided into five groups) feature aspherical surfaces – one of them on both sides. In addition, the new M lens renders images with practically no chromatic aberration, thanks to apochromatic correction – a rare quality in lenses of this focal length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe specially designed lens hood, in combination with highly effective anti-reflective coatings, make the APO-Summicron-M 35 f\/2 ASPH. virtually impervious to stray light and glare.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHighlights:\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnmatched image quality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContemporary design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEasy to focus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMost compact 35mm full frame lens with this exceptional optical performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClosest focus distance in M lens portfolio - up to 11.8\" (0.3m)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeica M-Mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApochromatic correction with anomalous partial dispersion glass elements—a first for 35mm M-System lenses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinimum focusing distance of 0.3m—closest in M-lens portfolio for true macro capability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTactile detent at 0.7m focus ring for seamless transition to close-focus range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChromatic aberration reduction to near-zero levels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContemporary design optimized for both rangefinder and mirrorless M-mount systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExceptional sharpness and contrast across the entire frame\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntuitive focus ring design for smooth, responsive manual focusing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003ePrecision German engineering and manufacturing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatible With:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCameras\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eLeica M (Typ 240)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeica M (Typ 262)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeica M Monochrom (Typ 246)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeica M Series M7\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeica M Series M7 TTL .72\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeica M Series MP .72\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeica M-A (Typ 127)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeica M-D (Typ 262)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeica M-E (Typ 240)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeica M-P (Typ 240)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeica M10\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeica M10 Monochrom\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeica M10 Monochrom Leitz Wetzlar\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeica M10-D\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeica M10-P\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeica M10-R\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeica M11\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFilters\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e39mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eø: 2.1 x L: 1.6\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWeight:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e0.71 lbs\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMaterials:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMetal\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eManufacturer SKU:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e11699\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIn The Box:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLeica APO-Summicron-M 35mm f\/2 ASPH.
