Titel photo: Cosina

Main Features:

• Focal length: 50 mm (for full format)
• Lens speed: f/1.2 – ideal for available light photography and selective focus
• Optical design: 8 elements in 6 groups, including 4 aspherical surfaces
• Focusing range: 0.5 m to ∞ (rangefinder coupled up to 0.7 m)
• Connection: VM bayonet (compatible with Leica M)
• Manual focus with precise metal mechanism and optimum torque
• High-quality production “Made in Japan”

Thanks to the precisely manufactured all-metal focusing mechanism and optimally tuned torque, the lens offers pleasantly smooth, sensitive handling. With a weight of just 322 g, it remains pleasantly light and balanced.

Equipped with the VM mount (compatible with the Leica M system), it not only impresses on classic rangefinder cameras, but also on mirrorless system cameras via an adapter – with harmonious balance and full creative potential.

Optionally available: metal lens hoods (LH-14 compact or LH-15 in vintage style). Both are also reversible for transportation.

This lens is aimed at ambitious photographers who want to combine the classic 50 mm angle of view with modern performance. Ideal for lovers of manual focusing who value high speed, excellent processing quality and a particularly soft bokeh.

For our fans: Differences to version I: the total weight has been further reduced (344 g à 322 g), and the filter ring is now completely black (instead of silver). The optical design has not been changed.
