Leica Summilux-M 90mm 1.5 ASPH. 11678

Leica Summilux-M 90mm f/1.5 ASPH. (11678) – NEW

The Leica Summilux-M 90mm f/1.5 ASPH. sets a new benchmark in portrait photography. It offers creative possibilities far beyond the ordinary – producing images with a breathtakingly shallow depth of field, where subjects stand out in striking sharpness against a beautifully soft, smooth background.

Its optical design of 8 elements in 6 groups, including two aspherical lenses and a floating element, ensures outstanding image performance at every focusing distance, even wide open at f/1.5. The result is exceptional resolution, minimal vignetting, and virtually no distortion – a hallmark of Leica engineering.

With a minimum focusing distance of 1 meter and a reproduction ratio of 1:8.8, the lens excels not only in portraiture but also in close-up photography. The built-in retractable lens hood provides effective protection from stray light and reflections.

Closely related to the legendary Noctilux-M 75mm f/1.25 ASPH., the Summilux-M 90mm delivers equally narrow depth of field and distinctive three-dimensional rendering – perfect for expressive, characterful imagery.

Every lens is crafted with meticulous precision, ensuring smooth, accurate focusing and the signature Leica bokeh. This combination of mechanical excellence and optical brilliance makes it a true masterpiece of German engineering.
