176° between 40 cm and infinity
The Summilux-M 35 f/1.4 ASPH. is not only easy to use, it gets up-close - up to 40 cm, without making any compromises on performance or setting accuracy. This is made possible by Leica's specially developed double cam gear unit, which has almost doubled the rotation angle of the distance ring as compared with the previous model, to 176°.
The high angle of rotation enables confident and precise control focusing over the entire adjustment focusing range. For distances down to 70 cm, focus is determined and controlled as usual via the rangefinder for all digital and analogue M-cameras. Then, after subtle resistance in the dial, the extended close-up range, between 70 and 40 cm can be precisely focused via live view on the screen, the Visoflex clip-on viewfinder, or the Leica FOTOS App.
