LEICA SUMMILUX-M 35 mm f/1.4 ASPH. - 05-17-2010, 01:34 PM


With the LEICA SUMMILUX-M 35 mm f/1.4 ASPH., Leica Camera AG, Solms, presents a revised version of the popular wide-angle lens of the Leica M rangefinder system. Thanks to the latest developments in the fields of optics and precision engineering, the LEICA SUMMILUX-M 35 mm f/1.4 ASPH. sets a whole new standard in the fast wide-angle lens portfolio. Regardless of whether it’s a matter of selective focus in the close-up range, high-contrast available light applications or landscape shots with immense depth of field, the lens delivers persuasive arguments in any situation...

Rest of press release

Cosina-Voigtlander lenses/bodies are underrated. My friend has a R2A/40mm 1.4 combo that looks super nice at 1/10 the price of Leica

I'll be interested to see Sean Reid's test of it and his comparison to the CV 35/1.2 ASPH.

if I had $5000 disposable income, I'd rather spend $800 on a CV 35 1.2 then use the rest on a trip to Europe!
