Leica APO-Telyt-M 135mm F3.4 ASPH Full-Frame Lens
Product Gallery
Product Overview
Leica APO-Telyt-M 135mm f/3.4 ASPH is a manual-focus medium telephoto prime lens for Leica M-mount. It covers the Full-Frame image circle and has 5 elements in 4 groups.
For most rangefinder shooters, a telephoto lens at this focal length is hardly the first thing that comes to mind. Leica introduced this lens to please the few photographers who like the challenge of manually focusing for their portrait shots.
A telephoto prime lens with relatively dark maximum aperture, it is best used for portrait and landscape photography.
