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.

From capturing everyday moments to professional photography, the 50mm f/1.4 Summilux-M ASPH Lens in Silver is a versatile tool designed to meet your diverse photographic needs. This lens, with its standard 50mm focal length, is engineered to perform exceptionally in a wide array of shooting scenarios.

The Summilux-M lens is designed to maximize the performance potential of new-age camera sensors, delivering high-contrast, detailed images even under challenging lighting conditions. This lens stands out with its 11 aperture blades, an upgrade from the usual 9, providing a noticeably rounder and more pleasing bokeh effect.

The lens also boasts an extended closest focusing distance, from the standard 70 cm to an impressive 45 cm. This enhancement allows for 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 rangefinder of both digital and analogue M cameras. For focusing in the extended close-up range between 70 and 45 cm, the use of Live View on the screen, the Visoflex, or the Leica FOTOS app is required.

The 50mm f/1.4 Summilux-M ASPH Lens mirrors the technical and optical refinements of the 35mm model from the high-speed Summilux-M series. A unique feature of this lens is the integrated lens hood, which can be extended at any time with a simple flick of the wrist.

In conclusion, the 50mm f/1.4 Summilux-M ASPH Lens in Silver is a powerful, versatile lens that delivers superior image quality and performance, making it an essential addition to any photographer's gear.
