As a serious crowd favourite amongst architectural photographers and urban explorers, the Leica 28mm f2.8 Elmarit-M Asph Lens stands as a compact, unobtrusive, and high-functioning wide-angle prime. This lens features an 8-element, 6-group optical construction consisting of one aspherical element to actively reduce spherical aberrations and distortions. In essence, this ensures clean, sharp, and colour-accurate image-quality that is consistent throughout the full aperture and focusing ranges. Adhering to Leica's tried-and-tested manual focus designation, this 28mm f2.8 lens promises tactile and precise control for on-location shooting. As the lens protrudes just 30.7cm, it is barely visible within the viewfinder field of your favourite M cameras. This guarantees a clear, fresh, and uncluttered composition; ideal for a wide array of creative applications and photography disciplines.
