Leica Press Release
8th February 2023. Leica Camera has more than 150 years of experience in the development, design and manufacturing of optics, ensuring Leica lenses are known for their high-quality, reliability, precision and outstanding image quality. The SL-System combines exceptional performance with flexibility for photographers and videographers , and expanding the SL-Lens portfolio with the new Summicron-SL 35 f/2 ASPH. and Summicron-SL 50 f/2 ASPH. has unlocked even greater creative freedom.
Both lenses are conveniently compact and lightweight, whilst retaining a high speed and very shallow depth of field, making them especially useful for travel and day-to-day photography and videography. Thanks to their linear direct drive, the lens focusing is extremely fast, smooth and accurate, ensuring excellent focus performance for photography and quiet focusing for videography. They also expand the L-Mount Alliance offering, providing more versatility for photographers and videographers shooting in different environments.
Ensuring high optical performance was extremely important in the manufacture of both new lenses and influenced the use of aspherical elements, combining the “Made by Leica” image quality with the unmistakeable ‘Summicron’ look.
