Product Overview

Leica Summilux-SL 50mm F1.4 ASPH is a large-aperture normal prime lens for Leica L-mount. It covers the full-frame image circle. Introduced by Leica in 2015, it has 11 elements in 9 groups.
A normal prime lens, the Leica Summilux-SL 50mm F1.4 ASPH has the potential to be one of the most used and ultimately versatile option in a photographer's bag. Usually the easiest to design and to QC, it is a great option for landscape and street photography. Its bright maximum aperture also helps night and portrait works.
Some photographers may be disappointed by the fact that the lens does not accept front screw-on filters.
