Description — Leica 11310
The Leica 11310 35mm f/2 Summicron-M is a prime lens built exclusively for the Leica M-mount rangefinder camera system. It offers a 35mm focal length — positioned in the standard range — making it a flexible choice across a wide range of photographic subjects. The f/2 maximum aperture gives shooters meaningful light-gathering capability without pushing into larger, heavier lens territory.
At 240g, this is a genuinely compact optic that fits the rangefinder ethos of precision in a small package. Focusing is manual only, consistent with the rangefinder design, and there is no image stabilization. The 39mm filter thread matches the classic Leica filter standard.
Designed to cover full-frame sensors, this lens is a straightforward, no-compromise prime for M-mount shooters who value a traditional, hands-on shooting experience.
