Leica Summilux-M 35 f/1.4 on M Camera.

Limited Special Edition in black

The black anodised Summilux-M 35 f/1.4 is inspired by the legendary original from 1961. In those days, only a small number of this special design variant were produced. Understandably, the unique photojournalism lens has become a highly coveted collector’s item. Known as the “Steel Rim”, the stainless-steel front ring creates a stylish counterpoint to the black parts, lending the lens an unmistakable look.

To keep the lens even truer to the original, the engravings on the adjustment rings offer the same vintage look. Furthermore, “LEITZ WETZLAR” is engraved on the front, and the aperture ring shows the special edition number. The focus lock button, made of black lacquered brass, is another special highlight, as it will develop a unique patina with usage. 

 Only 200 of this special edition lens will be produced, coming in vintage-style packaging with a classic lens container to ensure the safety of this exclusive product.

An individualist returns

Most products receive enhancements over the years. But some have a special character and an individuality that makes them last. Just like the classic Leica Summilux-M 35 f/1.4.

The true king of bokeh

As the world's fastest wide-angle lens, the Leica Summilux-M 35 f/1.4 set the photographic benchmark in 1961. Today it continues to inspire with its exceptional images. Especially shots at open aperture fascinate with their individual, almost fairy-tale look, which is really difficult to achieve through digital editing.

A distinctive bokeh and vignetting at maximum aperture, got the Summilux-M 35 f/1.4 its title as the "true king of bokeh". Photographing at open aperture in backlit conditions creates intended lens flares that can be used for specific creative effects. At smaller apertures it delivers very sharp and almost distortion-free pictures that easily meet all modern requirements on image quality.
