Leica have announced they are no longer producing this lens
The extremely shallow depth of field at open aperture produces portraits and detailed studies of unequalled aesthetic effect. The result is outstanding image quality, comparable to the Leica Summilux-M 50mm f/1.4 ASPH., which is considered the best standard lens ever produced. Even the light from one candle can be sufficient for handheld photography.
Unlike previous Silver chrome lenses, due to awareness of weight the Noctilux 50mm 0.95 and Summilux 35mm 1.4 in Silver Chrome are Aluminium based lenses, mirroring their Black Chrome counterparts.

Leica have announced they are no longer producing this lens
With its impressive angle of view of 107?, this new TRI-ELMAR conquers 16 mm super wide-angle photography in perfect Leica M style. Due to the minimal distortion and barely perceptible field curvature, it can be recommended for highly demanding architecture photography even at the 16 mm setting. Used on the digital M8, it produces the image effect of a 21 - 28 mm lens, still enabling extreme wide-angle views. The ultra compact shape is achieved by two aspherical elements. A new design of the interior focusing significantly enhances the quality in the close-focus range through an adaption of the floating element principle. Brilliant field depth can therefore be used from a distance of 0.33 m for hyperfocal photography.
This lens is supplied WITHOUT finder.
Legendary Lenses, Reimagined
The Leica Classic Line is dedicated to re issuing historical Leica lenses whose specific imaging characteristics cannot be
created either by modern lenses, nor in digital post processing
While the exterior design is carefully adapted to complement the contemporary lenses of the M System, the optical design
of the original lens design remains unchanged

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.
Leica APO-Summicron-M 35 f/2 ASPH.
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.
Technically based on Noctilux M 50 f/1.2 ASPH. Outer parts in glossy black paint finish. White inked scales | feet scale red inked. Classic round lens hood glossy black paint. Packaging with classic transparent lens container
A masterpiece Summilux-M 50.
• Performance update(update of optic design for higher resolution)
• Extended close focus distance (up to 0.45m)
• Visibly rounder bokeh (11 instead of 9aperture blades)
• Integrated swivel lenshood
• Compact as VersionIII
• Similar design and size as NEW Summilux-M 35 f/1.4 ASPH. (onefamily)

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.
