This lens sold me on Leica lenses

This was my first Leica lens for my M9 and I was not disappointed! Easy to use and quick to focus, sharp images and good bokeh with f/2.4. I came from the Zeiss Biogon 35mm and was happy with the Leica so much so, I moved up to the Summicron 35mm when I could afford it. I was glad I purchased the Summarit first. A great lens.

Leica quality at a great price

Lightweight, compact, great IQ and the lowest new price on a Leica lens I could find. Comes with a metal lens hood too. Love it!
