![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Sharpness is impressive from corner to corner, as are contrast, color and bokeh. Yes, it will flare as all lenses will, but its no worse than the Summilux (the Summarit is actually the best at dealing with flare) and it is entirely controllable and predictable. ![]() Some people complain about flare, but I've owned this lens for years, sold it, and just bought another and have never had an issue with flare. f/2 its fast enough for almost anything, and since it performs so close to its best even wide-open, there is never a need to stop down other than for increased depth of field. The Summilux might be slightly sharper (might, and if so, very slightly), the APO is visibly sharper and the Summarit is lighter and cheaper, but there really is nothing that this lens doesn't do extremely well.Īt. Offering uncompromising reference-class optical performance along with a new close focus functionality, the lens is surprisingly compact and very lightweight. There are faster (Summilux and Noctilux), lighter (Summarit) and even higher performing (APO Summicron), but when taken as a total package (which of course includes price) then this lens really hits the sweet spot. Today, Leica has announced a new addition to the M lens lineup, the Leica APO-Summicron-M 35mm f/2 ASPH. There is no better 50mm lens available for your Leica M camera. ![]()
