Balancing a compact size with a fast aperture, the Leica 35mm f/2.4 Summarit-M ASPH Lens offers users of Leica M mount cameras with a wide-angle perspective. The 35mm lens utilises aspherical elements in the 6 element and 4 group optical design that allows for a more compact lens with sharp optical performance across the frame. An aperture range from f/2.4 to f/16 also contributes to versatility in a variety of shooting conditions. Additionally, the lens is fully manual focus and features 6-bit coding for bringing up frame lines and transferring metadata to the camera.
