Designed to be compact and lightweight without sacrificing performance, the Leica Summicron-SL 50 f/2 ASPH. weighs only 13.05 ounces (without caps or hood), almost half the weight of its APO counterpart.
At the same time, it impresses with its high speed and famous Summicron look; incredible contrast control, vivid colors, and a distinguished shallow depth of field. This makes the SL-System ideal for daily use as well as traveling. The Summicron lenses focus extremely fast, smoothly, and accurately thanks to their linear direct drive. Hence, the Summicron-SL 50 f/2 ASPH. delivers excellent focus performance for photography, but is also perfectly suited for videography, where quiet focusing is very important.
The Summicron-SL 50 f/2 ASPH. lens expands not only the SL-System but also the L-Mount portfolio with versatile, compact, and lightweight optics to photograph and film in brilliant image quality “Made by Leica”.
