The distinctive and highly sought-after Safari Edition of the fast and compact 35 mm classic in matt olive green.
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
This Safari limited special edition combines contemporary technology with distinctive design in a fast standard 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 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.

The Leica Viewfinder Magnifier M 1.4x magnifies the viewfinder image by two fifths. Providing a major aide in framing the subject at focal lengths above 75 mm. By magnifying the rangefinder images, it greatly enhances focusing accuracy, especially when shooting at telephoto focal lengths. The 1.4 x viewfinder magnifier turns into magnification of 1x (0.95x with M8 Models); this combination allows comfortable viewing of the subject with both eyes. The viewfinders are simply screwed into the viewfinder ocular of the Leica M. A small chain attached to the Leica M's carrying strap eyelet prevents it from being lost or damaged. A leather pouch is supplied for safekeeping when it's not attached.
