最短撮影距離を短縮

最短撮影距離40cmに対応する広角レンズが、魅力的なイメージを切り撮る可能性を大きく広げます。この性能を支えているのは、ライカの卓越したエンジニアリングが誇る独自のデュアルカーブ機構です。従来のモデルより距離リングの回転域を拡大することで、被写体によりいっそう接近できるようになりました。フォーカスリングは音を抑えて、スムーズに、かつ全範囲で容易にピントを調整できます。撮影距離70cmまではM型カメラの距離計に連動したピント合わせが可能です。撮影距離が40～70cmの場合、ライブビュー対応のM型デジタルカメラでは液晶モニターで、または外付け電子ビューファインダー「ビゾフレックス2」やライカ専用アプリ「Leica FOTOS」でピントを調整することができます。

The Strengths of the 28 mm Leica M-Lens

The Summicron-M 28 f/2 ASPH. excels in scenarios where spatial awareness and contextual detail enrich the narrative. Whether in urban settings, on the road or during documentary assignments. Thanks to its f/2 lens speed, it makes photography possible even in challenging lighting and yields images that appear clear and naturally rendered. Its streamlined build lends itself perfectly to discreet photography. Its refined optical design ensures elevated contrast, suppresses distortion and preserves remarkable sharpness right to the outermost edges of the frame.

Design of the Summicron-M 28 f/2 ASPH.

With nine lenses in six groups – including an aspherical lens – the optical system achieves precise correction of both spherical aberrations and distortion. Its close focus distance is just 0.4 metres. The durable all-metal construction, complemented by a screw-in lens hood, offers dependable protection from glare while accentuating the lens’s characteristically compact profile.
