Key specifications

The manual-focus lens has 7 elements in 5 groups, 12 aperture blades and a 43 mm filter thread. The minimum focusing distance is 0.45 m and the weight is 189.3 g. Rangefinder coupling works from 0.7 m to infinity; closer than that, live-view focusing is needed. A hammer-tone lens hood is included[1].

Design and mount

Funleader describes the lens as inspired by the 1961 Leica Summilux 50mm f/1.4 E43, with a scalloped "pineapple" focus ring, closer focus than the original (which stops at 1 m) and a body of aluminum and brass[1]. With an adapter it can be used on mirrorless systems such as Micro Four Thirds and Sony E. Find more options under all Leica M lenses.
