The glossy black finish of the Summilux-M 50 f/1.4 captures the essence of the classic Leica design like no other. With years of frequent use, this exclusive finish gradually acquires a unique patina, subtly revealing the brass beneath. Originally introduced in 1959, this standard lens made its return to the Leica Classic Line in early 2025. It combines historical design with the demands of modern digital photography, delivering remarkable lens speed, exceptional image quality and a signature bokeh that stands out even at wide aperture. The round lens hood, also finished in glossy black, further accentuates the lens’s vintage look.
