Leica Summaron-M 28mm f5.6 ASPH Lens - Silver Chrome
The Leica M can be used with a multitude of lenses that go far beyond those available from the current portfolio. Frequently photographers use lenses with a "vintage" signature to achieve particular effects that are diffficult to reproduce, even with the most up-to-date digital postprocessing software.
The 50-year old Summaron wide-angle is a popular and compact lens that has now been recreated with an M-bayonet mount, 6-bit coding, and revised design. It cannot be mistaken or reproduced by digital means and make the lens a true classic that is now reborn in a revisited edition with unchanged optical design.
The lens has a unqiue character due to the extreme depth of field, natural contrast, rendition of details and visible vignetting. Photos taken with the Summaron-M have a look reminscent of analog photography.

Perfect for the Street: The Summaron-M is the smallest lens of the M-System. With an overall length of less than 2cm it is noticeably unnoticeable and thus ideal for street photography.
The combination of clearly laid out depth of field scale and long focus throw allows particularly precise pre-focusing
An Homage to the Fine Art of Engineering: The lens hood conjures up memories of the early days of rangefinder photography.
Its design and the elaborate manufacturing processes that went into its construction have been recreated to match the historic ancestry of the Summaron-M.
Extensive manufacturing process
The Leica Summaron-M 28mm f/5.6 is manufactured in Germany from only the best materials and is assembled completely by hand. The lens hood is first machined from solid brass and then given its ultimate form by a turning and bending process. The turning also cuts the numerous grooves on the inner surface of the lens hood.
