50 APO-Summicron-SL f2 ASPH
The optical formula for the new Leica 50 APO-Summicron-SL f2 ASPH lens achieves incredible image quality; its design of 12 extremely complex lens elements, 3 of which are aspherical, corrects for unwanted chromatic aberrations and provides an amazingly sharp and contrasty image. With its rugged metal construction, weather sealing against dust and spray water, Aquadura water-resistant exterior glass coatings and a fast Dual Synchro Drive autofocus, this may be the finest 50mm lens Leica has made to date…
