The compact APO-Summicron-M 35 f/2 ASPH. pushes the limits of the technology to deliver uncompromising optical performance. 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.

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.

Close focus distance up to 0.4 m

Possible by a patent-pending double cam unit newly developed by Leica engineers. As a result, the rotation angle of the focus ring could be almost doubled to 176°in comparison to the previous model – with the same compact size of the lens.

The distinctive and highly sought-after Safari Edition of the fast and compact 35 mm classic in matt olive green.

The first Noctilux-M lens in the company’s history with a focal length of 35mm.

Like all Noctilux lenses, the newest member of the family impresses with outstanding light intensity at the highest imaging performance.

The especially compact lens delivers clear, high-contrast images with an individual, distinctive look. The shallow depth of field at full aperture precisely separates subject and space, creates a velvety smooth bokeh, and gives images a tangible sense of depth and a cinematic atmosphere.
