This lens offers high-speed performance ideal for low-light conditions and depth of field control. The updated optics enhance sharpness, resolution, and contrast, making it suitable for high-resolution sensors. With a reduced minimum focusing distance, smoother bokeh from the 11-blade diaphragm, and a compact, sleek design with a retractable lens hood, it is versatile and easy to use. Compatible with M-mount rangefinder cameras, this lens is perfect for photographers seeking precision and quality.
Featuring a redesigned housing and updated optics, the Leica Summilux-M 50mm f/1.4 ASPH. is a fresh take on a beloved focal length. Inherently one of the most versatile lenses, this updated 50mm f/1.4 has an improved minimum focusing distance of 1.5', a new 11-blade diaphragm for smoother bokeh, and an updated lens body that matches the Summilux-M 35mm's sleek and lightweight design along with a built-in, retractable lens hood.
As part of the Summilux class, this 50mm f/1.4 lens is characterized by its high-speed performance that benefits both low-light usage along with greater control over depth of field.
Beyond updated optics, this lens also sports a refreshed external design that matches other refreshed Summilux-M lenses, like the 35mm f/1.4.
The minimum focusing distance has been improved from 2.3' to 1.5' to take advantage of the lens's use in conjunction with cameras that feature live view or when working with the Visoflex or Leica FOTOS app. Rangefinder focusing is still only supported down to 2.3'; live view focusing must be used between 2.3' and 1.5'.
