Item Description
The Leica SUMMILUX-M 21 mm f1.4 ASPH is the first and only 21mm small camera
lens with this lens speed. The outstanding image quality, very large image
angles and compact dimensions make the Leica SUMMILUX-M 21 mm f/1.4 ASPH a
particularly versatile performer. At full aperture, the depth of field (DOF) is
extremely shallow.
As a result, in close-ups the main subject can be separated effectively from
the background to create very expressive photographs. At a medium stop, the
focal range is so great that entire scenes can be reproduced sharply. Because of
the floating element, the very high resolution is retained even in the close-up
range. Vignetting and distortion are both corrected excellently for a lens of
this speed.
The Leica Summilux-M lenses have wide application potential, thanks to the
combination of wide-angle characteristics with ultra-high speed
Extremely shallow field depth at full open aperture allows the main subject
in close focus shots to be effectively detached from the background. Stopped
down to medium values, the field depth range is so great that entire landscapes
will be depicted in sharp focus
With "floating elements", the superb performance is kept even at close focal
distances
Vignetting and distortion are hardly noticeable in practice
Equipped with a patented, rectangular metal lens hood that accommodates
series VIII (21 mm) filter mounts
Use of regular polarizing filters, size E82 (21mm) is possible with special
filter adapters
Includes a 3-Year Leica USA Warranty
