One of the best fast wide angle rangefinder lenses available
|
| The Leica 35mm f1.4 Summilux-M ASPH lens is not only one of the finest fast wide angle rangefinder lenses available, it was also the first of the new generation of Leica M lenses renowned for their optical excellence. Wide open, this lens performs essentially as well as its slower f2 sibling, judging from test reports I have read at Erwin Puts's website and elsewhere. It is the lens favored by most Leica M rangefinder photographers working in low-light conditions. I have found this lens to be amazingly sharp with excellent contrast and resolution; only my 28mm f 2 Summicron-M ASPH lens performs noticeably better. But now, here's the $3,000 question. Is it worth paying this much for such optical excellence? I'll let you the customer decide, but I shall state that I remain a very satisfied user of this lens. However, I will also mention that I bought this lens when it was available for one third its current price brand new. |
