Lens (Black)\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first wide-angle Noctilux and the fastest 35mm ever produced by Leica, the Noctilux-M 35mm f\/1.2 ASPH. mixes the high speed and selective focus control the series is known for with a natural wide-angle field of view and a uniquely compact design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe calling card of the Noctilux series, this lens is distinguished by its impressively bright f\/1.2 maximum aperture. This is Leica's brightest 35mm lens yet, making it well-suited to low-light use, for selective-focus portraits, and other subjects that are benefitted by a unique shallow depth of field look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVersatile 35mm Focal Length\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the first Noctilux lens with a 35mm focal length, offering a wider field of view compared to the existing 50mm and 75mm Noctiluxes, for a natural perspective that includes more background information and context than the narrower focal lengths. The fast design still allows the lens to be selective but the wide-angle focal length makes the lens more suitable for traditional reportage, street, and environmental portraiture applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePrecision Glass Molding Technology\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContributing both to the lens's small size and impressive image quality, this Noctilux-M 35mm f\/1.2 utilizes Precision Glass Molding (PGM) technology to create a more efficient and exacting optical design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptimised for high-resolution M cameras, this lens provides the sharpness and resolution for the latest image sensors while still retaining the character and handcrafted quality associated with Leica optics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePGM technology is used to shape the three aspherical elements with finer tolerances for better control over various aberrations, higher micro-contrast, and smoother, more natural bokeh. Additional elements are made using highly refractive glasses for improved color clarity with virtually no chromatic aberrations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFloating element design also ensures consistent image quality throughout the focusing range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eManual Focus Control and Physical Design\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the first Noctilux lens to feature extended close-range focusing down to 1.6' (50 cm); compared to the conventional 2.3' (70 cm) of most rangefinder lenses, this additional range suits working with close-up subjects at a maximum magnification of 1:11.6.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo make use of the added 1.6' to 2.3' focusing range, an M camera with an EVF, an accessory Visoflex EVF, or live view monitoring from the camera's rear LCD must be used; optical rangefinders only provide accurate focusing control to 2.3'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDespite being the fastest 35mm lens Leica has produced, this lens still manages to be relatively compact and lightweight—it measures 50.2mm long, 64.6mm in diameter, and weighs 416g.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt-in extendable lens hood shades and protects the front element to reduce lens flare and ghosting.
