Leica 35mm f/1.4 

Top Rated Gear: Used Leica 35mm f/1.4 Summilux-M ASPH FLE Lens, Black, #11663 E- MFR: 11663.

 FLE (Floating Lens Element Design)   In comparison with its predecessor, the new Leica SUMMILUX-M 35 mm f/1.4 ASPH. now incorporates a floating element: the lenses behind the aperture blades are constructed as a floating group that changes its position relative to the front lens group during focusing to ensure that the Leica SUMMILUX-M 1:1.4/35 mm ASPH. achieves equally outstanding imaging performance at closer focusing distances.  The Leica SUMMILUX-M 35 mm f/1.4 ASPH. is a further revised version of the popular wide-angle lens of the Leica M rangefinder system. Thanks to the latest developments in the fields of optics and precision engineering, the new 35 lens sets a whole new standard in the fast wide-angle lens portfolio. Regardless of whether it's a matter of selective focus in the close-up range, high-contrast available light applications or landscape shots with immense depth of field, the lens delivers persuasive arguments in any situation. In addition to the new FLE (floating elements) design, this lens features a full-metal, rectangular, screw-mount lens hood that contributes significantly to the even more compact dimensions of the lens. Even wide open, the LEICA SUMMILUX-M 35 mm f/1.4 ASPH. reveals performance characteristics without precedent in the field of compact 35 mm lenses: outstanding imaging performance over the entire focusing range, from infinity to minimum focus, excellent contrast, even in the finest structures, superb rendition of details across the entire image field, good field flattening and, stopped down to f2 and onwards, almost complete freedom from coma effects. It is hardly possible to improve this excellent optical performance by stopping down.

Closer focus is GREAT!  Lens creates perfectly clear photos or plenty of smooth bokeh as you wish.  Stars are shockingly clear and colorful, f1.4 is well worth it!   Highest flawless quality of Leica as expected, controls feel very good.

40cm versus 70cm is a large difference!

You have owed me the lens hood! I did not receive the lens hood!!! Please help!

My Order

Love new lense

I have done extensive field testing across four continents in every imaginable context with both the 35mm Summicron and the 35mm Summilux. Without a doubt, the Summilux produces far superior results over the Summicron. The real magic of the Summilux is at ƒ/1.4. The focus is incredibly forgiving at that aperture (unlike the 50mm Summilux) and you can nail shots all day long at ƒ/1.4. The results are nothing short of phenomenal.

Superior 35mm

The Leica Summilux-TL 35mm lens an amazing lens.  It is biting sharp at all apertures and from corner to corner, and is every bit as good as the legendary Summilux-M on the Leica T - with the added convenience of Autofocus, which is fast enough on the T.  

Color rendition, micro contrast, and the way the lens handles lighting transitions (going from shadows to light) are all second to none - and combined they are what make Leica lenses so special.  The bokeh is really creamy and beautiful, and you can create stunning images with that "Leica look" with this lens.  It's a big step up from the other Leica T lenses - which are all outstanding and class leading as well.

The lens is very well constructed (built like a tank) but it's a tad large and heavy.  It is well-balanced on the Leica T when using the half-case for better grip.  

I was surprised that chromatic aberrations are a problem on occasion - but this is not a major problem as they are easily corrected in post-processing.  

(Weight and chromatic aberrations are why I gave it only 4 stars)

While it's expensive, it's a lot cheaper than the Summilux-M and is every bit as good.  I have no regrets with this purchase but I do wish it was $400 less as it was originally advertised by Leica.

Amazing lens - a true Leica gem

Best 35mm lens on earth

Nice lens. Wide-open shooting is no problem for this lens so far. I am still holding on to my Summicron as it is quite a bit lighter. I haven't seen any noticeable difference in sharpness.

One nice lens

Stiff focus and loose aperture ring. After comparing the Summilux to the 35 Summicron. I feel the Summicron is best.
