APO-Summicron-SL 50 f/2 ASPH.

The APO-Summicron-SL 50 f/2 ASPH. is the SL-System’s fast standard lens. The imaging performance of this lens sets the bar for 50 mm full-frame photography. With this compact fixed focal length, you can compose portrait, reportage and travel shots intuitively and with fantastic acutance. The f/2 focal ratio enables separation using natural light with absolute tonal fidelity as well as micro contrast that satisfies the highest demands. Consequently, the APO-Summicron-SL 50 f/2 ASPH. produces the striking image aesthetics that have made Leica lenses renowned the world over.

When working with perspectives that come close to human vision, this lens provides particularly authentic results. The apochromatic design reliably prevents chromatic aberration. Even at a wide aperture, images are rich in contrast with clear contours and without colour fringing at the edges or luminous highlights. This results in exceptional detail and imaging performance, perfectly suited to high-resolution sensors. Thanks to an autofocus system with Dual Syncro Drive™, the APO-Summicron-SL 50 f/2 ASPH. works quietly, quickly and accurately. Precise positioning of focal planes is a matter of course even if the aperture is open all the way.
