Leica APO-Summicron-M 75mm f/2 ASPH. - Leica M Mount

The APO-Summicron-M 75mm f/2 ASPH. is a high-performance short telephoto lens for the Leica M system. It features a sophisticated optical design including apochromatic correction and an aspherical surface to minimise aberrations. This lens is known for its exceptional sharpness, even at the maximum aperture, and a relatively close minimum focusing distance of 0.7m, making it highly effective for portraiture and tight framing. When purchasing a used example, the mechanical operation of the focus ring should be smooth across the entire range, and the built-in sliding lens hood should remain securely in place. SDS technicians check for internal dust and ensure the rangefinder coupling is accurately calibrated. Inspect the rear element and brass barrel for signs of heavy use, though the rugged construction typically withstands professional handling well.
