The result is unparalleled versatility, giving subjects the chance to tell their own stories, even in the weakest light. Alongside the innovative, handcrafted precision, extremely shallow depth of field and the particularly aesthetic bokeh for this focal length, it is the significantly reduced close focus distance that ensures greater proximity to all the action, the subject and the world around us. Thanks to its compact design, the Noctilux-M 35 offers complete freedom to realize your photographic ambitions – anytime, anywhere. Inspired by light itself, which weighs nothing yet means everything.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eWhere Space and Subject Meet Anew\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a lens that creates closeness without forcing it. It's 35 mm fixed focal length produces the velvety soft bokeh typical of Noctilux lenses, while also establishing a signature style – atmospheric, vivid, and unmistakable. The slightly wide-angle lens strikes a new balance between context and subject. There are enough surroundings to frame stories and people against the particularly vivid Noctilux background at a wide aperture. This makes subjects stand out in three dimensions even from a distance. At close range, another strength becomes apparent: the combination of a small close focus distance and extremely high lens speed creates a depth that immerses you in the soul of a moment rather than just seeing it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eMaking the Very Best Out of Very Little\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Noctilux-M 35 f\/1.2 offers maximum freedom: it yields maximum light, even in conditions characterized by barely perceptible ambient illumination. It's extremely high lens speed, with the aperture fully open, enables you to take photos using only available light, even in challenging environments where the human eye barely sees at all. At parties, concerts, or with late-night street scenes, it captures authentic moods without altering the scene with a flash or any other artificial intervention. The wide aperture creates a distinctive cinematic aesthetic with natural color rendering, exceptional contrast, and atmospheric depth, giving you creative control over light, shadow, and composition, even in minimal residual light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eClosing in on the Technically Impossible\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePure precision, condensed into a 415 gram, 5.02 centimeter package: the Noctilux-M 35 comprises ten lenses in five groups, including three aspherical elements manufactured using the PGM process, as well as a patented focusing mechanism that ensures consistently high imaging performance throughout the entire focusing range. The large focusing angle enables exceptionally precise manual focusing, with a close focus distance of just 0.5 meters. This is supported by a mechanism that is handcrafted in Wetzlar with meticulous attention to detail that can be perceived in every millimeter. A true statement on precision optics – and the timeless expression of genuine pioneering spirit.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eForm Perfected – Made in Germany\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePGM (Precision Glass Moulding) makes it possible to produce highly complex aspherical lenses with special geometries. Such lenses were previously almost impossible to produce, but they allow the 35 mm Noctilux to deliver unparalleled performance in an extremely compact design. At the heart of this technology are mould inserts made of high-purity tungsten carbide, which are produced specially in Wetzlar. With tolerances set at a maximum of three nanometers per millimeter of diameter, these aspherical tools are produced to an unrivaled standard of quality. Experienced specialists in toolmaking and precision optics perfect each tool through careful hand polishing before applying a diamond-like coating that transfers this perfection precisely to the highly refractive glass at temperatures of up to 700 °C. As part of this process, Leica harnesses its decades of experience and its own calculation models to accurately predict mould behavior during the cooling phase. The result is a process unique in Europe, whereby the Noctilux-M 35 f\/1.2 ASPH. delivers the highest degree of performance in the most compact design to date.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHighlights:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFirst Noctilux lens with close focusing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrecision Glass Molding (PGM)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 Aspherical Lenses and Floating Element\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiagonal view angle: 63.3°\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFocus range: 1.6 feet to ∞ (0.5 m to ∞)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum reproduction ratio: 1:11.6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumber of lenses\/assemblies: 10\/5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLens hood: Can be pulled out and locked\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Germany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ef\/1.2 ultra-fast aperture for maximum light gathering in minimal illumination\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e35mm focal length with 63.3° diagonal view angle (54.3° horizontal, 37.7° vertical)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFirst Noctilux lens with close focusing capability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtremely shallow depth of field for distinctive subject separation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVelvety soft, aesthetic bokeh characteristic of Noctilux lenses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClose focus distance of just 0.5 meters for greater proximity to subjects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10 lenses in 5 groups with 3 aspherical surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrecision Glass Molding (PGM) technology for complex aspherical elements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFloating element for consistent high imaging performance throughout focusing range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePatented focusing mechanism with large focusing angle for precise manual control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNatural color rendering with exceptional contrast and atmospheric depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClick-stop diaphragm with half-increment lock settings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmallest aperture of f\/16\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e11-blade diaphragm for smooth bokeh rendering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeica M bayonet with 6-bit encoding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eE49 filter thread\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtendable lens hood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiamond-like coating on aspherical tools\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnique European manufacturing process\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for parties, concerts, street scenes, and low-light photography\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCaptures authentic moods without flash or artificial intervention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Germany\u003cbr\u003e\n\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\u003eLeica M-Mount Cameras\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFilters:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e49mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eConnectivity:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLeica FOTOS app\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eø: 2.5 x L: 2\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWeight:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e0.91 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\u003e11635\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIn The Box:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLeica Noctilux-M 35mm f\/1.2 ASPH.
