The versatile, prime Summicron-M 50mm f/2 lens from Leica excels in both low-light and controlled depth of field photography. Its six element, four group configuration ensures uniform illumination and clarity across the frame while minimizing distortion. Compact for daily use, this manual focus lens allows close-up shooting at 2.3 feet, and includes an integrated retractable lens hood for protection against flare and ghosting.

The Leica Summicron-M 50mm f/2 is a high-performance standard prime lens designed for Leica M-mount cameras. Renowned for its sharpness, compact design, and exceptional build quality, this lens is ideal for a wide range of photographic applications.

The Leica Summicron-M 50mm f/2 is a **manual focus** prime lens built around the **Leica M mount**, designed to pair with **mirrorless** camera bodies in the M system. With a **maximum aperture of f/2** and a fixed **50mm focal length** sitting squarely in the standard range, it is a versatile choice for a wide variety of photographic subjects. The lens provides **full-frame coverage**, ensuring no vignetting or crop factor concerns on compatible full-frame bodies. At just **240g**, it is impressively lightweight for a lens of this calibre, making it practical for photographers who value a compact, unobtrusive kit. The **39mm filter thread** allows for the use of a range of filters, though a step-up ring may be needed for larger modern filter systems. With **no image stabilization** and **manual focus only** operation, this lens is built for the considered, hands-on approach that defines rangefinder photography.

Designed for the Leica M rangefinder system and compatible with a wide range of M-mount mirrorless bodies from Leica and other manufacturers.
