The Leica M can be used with a wide range of Lens that extends far beyond the current portfolio. Lenses with a vintage character are often used to achieve certain image effects that can hardly be reproduced using the latest digital post-production methods. The extremely compact Summaron wide-angle lens, which has now been tried and tested for more than 50 years, is particularly popular and is now being reissued with an M bayonet including 6-bit coding and a slightly revised design.
Original, not retro.
The Summaron-M is based on a screw mount Lens that was manufactured at the Leitz factory in Wetzlar from 1955-1963. Its unmistakable and digitally hardly reproducible image effect makes the Lens a classic whose optical calculation has now been adopted unchanged for the new edition. However, it is clear at first glance that the Summaron-M is not a simple replica: Its design has been reduced to the essentials without losing the character of its legendary role model.
Recognizable at first glance.
The extremely compact wide-angle lens creates a unique image effect thanks to the combination of high depth of field, natural contrasts, excellent detail resolution and visible vignetting. With a look reminiscent of analog photography, subjects photographed with the Summaron-M clearly stand out from other images.
Perfect for the street.
The Summaron-M is the smallest Lens in the M-System. With a length of less than 2 cm, it is conspicuously inconspicuous and therefore ideal for street photography. The clear depth of field scale in combination with the large adjustment angles allows precise pre-focusing. Alternatively, the large depth of field creates the conditions for spontaneous hyperfocal photography from the hip, where the photographer can react faster to a subject than with any autofocus system.
A tribute to craftsmanship.
The lens hood is reminiscent of the early days of rangefinder photography. Not only its design, but also the elaborate manufacturing process was adopted from the historical model of the Summaron-M. The lens hood is first milled from solid brass and then shaped in a bending process. In this process, numerous grooves are turned into the inside of the lens hood.
Technical details.
The Leica Summaron-M 1:5.6/28 mm, with its six lens elements arranged symmetrically around the aperture in four elements, has the same optical construction as its predecessor. In contrast, however, the current model is equipped with the M bayonet including 6-bit coding to enable communication between camera and Lens.
