By refining the classical focal length of 50mm, this Leica lens stands as a fast standard prime with key apochromatic capabilities. The combination of anomalous partial dispersion and high refractive index glass allows this lens to focus solely upon red, green, and blue wavelengths at the same plane. This eliminates chromatic aberrations, whilst spherical aberrations are greatly reduced by the intricately positioned aspherical element. This lens further utilises a floating element to ensure clarity and sharpness throughout its vast focusing range (0.7m to infinity). As with all M-mount lenses, this 50mm f/2 is built around a tried and tested manual focus design, with the added convenience of a focusing tab to achieve precise focal control. As a compact 50mm prime lens, it excels in a whole host of different image-making disciplines. If it's high-quality, stylised performance that you require - look no further than this 50mm f2 prime.
