Leica 50mm f/2 APO-Summicron-M ASPH

Description: The Leica 50mm f/2 APO-Summicron-M ASPH is a normal-range lens designed for Leica M-mount cameras. Key features include:The highest possible image qualityExcellent edge-to-edge sharpness and contrastSmooth, full-time manual focusingAdvanced optical designExceptional Image Quality. The Leica 50mm f/2 APO-Summicron-M ASPH offers the highest possible image quality. Wide open at f/2, there’s slight vignetting in the extreme corners, but you can eliminate vignetting by stopping down to f/2.8. It has almost imperceptibly low distortion (0.4% pincushion) and offers excellent contrast rendition at all focus distances, thanks to its floating-element lens design.Advanced Optical Design. This lens’s excellent resolving power across the image plane makes it unique. By f/5.6, both tangential and sagittal lines of MTF testing are flatlined, which signifies absolute edge-to-edge image sharpness and contrast. Three apochromatic glass elements provide a common focus plane for three light wavelengths, effectively eliminating chromatic aberration. Two high refractive index elements further improve light transmission. Its Gaussian-type optical formula features an aspherical surface element in the first position of the floating rear group, eliminating spherical aberration and producing its superb flat image field.High-Quality Build. This lens’s 6-bit coding allows the camera to apply optional “final-stage” software-based vignetting correction. The built-in, retractable lens hood provides protection from lens flare, and the front of the lens barrel is threaded to accept 39mm filters. For situations where you require the highest possible image quality, the 50mm f/2 APO-Summicron-M ASPH is unbeatable.
