Leica Summilux-SL 50mm f1.4 ASPH. Lens

The Summilux-SL 50mm f/1.4 ASPH. Lens from Leica sets the standard for 50mm primes, delivering exceptional edge-to-edge sharpness even at its widest aperture. Designed for Leica’s full-frame SL-series mirrorless cameras, its advanced optical construction takes advantage of the short flange distance, incorporating two aspherical elements and four anomalous partial dispersion elements to minimize aberrations. The fast f/1.4 maximum aperture enhances low-light performance and enables stunning depth of field control for selective focus techniques.

A multi-layer coating reduces flare and ghosting, working in tandem with the included rectangular lens hood to maintain image clarity. The internal focusing system ensures precise operation while keeping the front filter ring stationary, making it ideal for specialized filters like circular polarizers or graduated NDs. Built with durability in mind, the lens features a weather-sealed design to protect against dust and moisture. As an L-mount lens, it is also compatible with Leica T-series APS-C cameras, where it offers a 75mm equivalent focal length, making it a versatile choice for both full-frame and cropped-sensor shooters.
