The Classic Focal Length for Capturing Moments in Transition

Whether travelling, capturing street scenes or composing serene portraits: this lens consistently balances breadth and intimacy with each shot.

The Strengths of the 35 mm Leica M-Lens

Thanks to its f/2 lens speed and moderate angle of view, the Summicron-M 35 f/2 ASPH. performs brilliantly in shifting light and vibrant street settings. Its optical clarity and harmonious bokeh effect deliver authentic, consistently clean shots. The image remains virtually free from distortion, maintaining its natural impression whether centred on architecture, people or the surrounding environment. Its lightweight, compact form makes it a discreet yet effective tool for everyday use. Reliable, precise and pleasantly unobtrusive.

Design of the Summicron-M 35 f/2 ASPH.

The lens, offered in both black and silver finishes, comprises seven lenses arranged in five groups, including an aspherical lens designed to correct spherical aberrations. Its close focus distance is 0.7 metres. The rectangular metal lens hood, designed to be screwed on, offers reliable protection from glare and physical impact. The finely tuned mechanism, featuring a comfortably short rotation angle, allows for accurate manual focusing with the Leica M.
