Extraordinarily versatile

For over 150 years, Leica has been developing outstandingly precise optical tools, which they constantly refine to stay ahead of the curve. Each is a masterpiece equipped with state-of-the-art technology. One of these masterpieces is our extremely versatile standard lens Summilux-M 50 f/1.4 ASPH., which is created to give photographers more freedom – for images of outstanding quality with maximum creative flexibility. Its high-end technology exploits the full performance potential of new camera sensors, offering exceptionally high-contrast and incredibly detailed images. In almost any photographic situation. In virtually any ambient light.

Focus on the world, from 45cm to eternity

The Summilux-M 50 f/1.4 ASPH. makes detailed close-ups possible thanks to a double cam mechanism and a minimum focusing distance of 45 centimeters. Specially developed by engineers, it greatly increases the rotation range of the distance ring compared to the previous model. This facilitates extremely easy and convenient focusing over the entire range, particularly in the extended close-up range. Distances as short as 70 centimeters are handled via the rangefinder. For the extended close-up range of 70 to 45 centimeters, you can focus via Live View on the screen, Visoflex or the Leica FOTOS App.

Hassle-free photography

The Summilux-M 50 f/1.4 ASPH. is as compact as ever with unchanged dimensions and weighing in at just 337 grams. The pictures it produces are on a whole new level. Compared to the previous model, 11 instead of 9 aperture blades ensure an even rounder bokeh with the unmistakable Leica look. The modern, round design of the lens hood offers even more flexibility. It’s integrated directly in the lens and can be screwed on or off with a flick of the wrist.

If you're seeking a lens that delivers superior performance across a variety of photographic scenarios, look no further than the 50mm f/1.4 Summilux-M ASPH Lens in sleek black. This lens, with its standard 50mm focal length, is versatile enough to handle most photographic situations, making it an essential tool for both professional and amateur photographers.

The Summilux-M 50mm f/1.4 lens is designed to fully exploit the capabilities of new-generation camera sensors, delivering high-contrast, detailed images even in challenging lighting conditions. This lens stands out with its 11 aperture blades, an upgrade from the usual 9, resulting in a noticeably rounder and more appealing bokeh effect.

One of the key enhancements of this lens is its extended closest focusing distance, which has been increased from 70cm to 45cm. This improvement allows for even more precise focusing across the entire setting range, without altering the frame size or focus sensitivity. This feature ensures comfortable handling of the lens, especially when focusing in the extended close-up range.

Focusing up to 70 centimeters is achieved via the range finder of both digital and analogue M cameras. For focusing in the extended close-up range between 70 and 45 cm, users can utilize Live View on the screen, the Visoflex, or the Leica FOTOS app.

Taking a cue from the 35mm model of the high-speed Summilux-M series, the 50mm f/1.4 Summilux-M ASPH lens has been technically and optically refined. A standout feature is the lens hood, which is seamlessly integrated into the lens and can be extended at any time with a simple flick of the wrist. This lens is not just a tool, but a testament to the blend of functionality and design.
