Leica 90mm f/2.5 Summarit-M, Telephoto Manual Focus Lens for M System, Black - USA

SKU:

VW-RM92-WRIR

This product is currently out of stock
Description:

The Summarit-M lenses are designed to offer traditional Leica optical and mechanical excellence while positioned at a price level below the current M ASPH lenses. The aim of these lenses is to bring classic Leica quality and performance to a broader market of users. The Summarit-M maximum aperture of f/2.5 and the concentration on classical and proven spherical lens designs leads to very compact, but high performance lenses with excellent quality expected from a Leica lens. The Summarit-M lenses will see the reemergence of traditional Leica elements. All letter and number engravings will be made using the traditional "Leitz-Norm" font as originally used by Leitz Wetzlar during the 1960's and the red button onthe lens mount will be true to the original color used on lenses produced since the introduction of the M mount through the 1970's.

Features:

All Summarit-M lenses are designed, manufactured and marked "Made in Germany"


Highest optical and mechanical performance with the classic Leica look and feel


Superb price/performance that reach new markets and customer segments


Compact lenses in the Leica tradition


Lenses include metal front cap, rear cap and cloth pouch

5Leica's Best in its new Summarit-M Lens LineDec 14, 2007
I had the chance to handle this fine M-mount rangefinder camera portrait (short telephoto) lens at this year's Photo Plus East and came away quite impressed with it. It focuses nearly as quickly as my APO-Summicron-M lens, but, better yet, offers a level of a performance that is as good as, if not better, than Leica's top-of-the-line fast 90mm lens at a significant savings. I saw some superb demonstration photographs taken with this lens, including a fine black and white portrait that is notable for its rich tonality (vivid blacks and whites, with very high contrast). If there is only one negative feature that I don't like about the 90mm Summarit-M lens, then it is this: it lacks a built-in lens hood (The lens hood must be purchased separately too.). Those in search of a cheaper alternative to the 90mm APO-Summicron lens won't be disappointed at all.
