Leica has always reimagined “what is” while redefining the boundaries of what can be. This ambition paves the way for endless photographic possibilities and superior image results. The fast and powerful Leica Summicron-M 28 f/2 ASPH. wide-angle lens embodies that legacy. With its state-of-the-art technical features, it's designed to make the most of the latest camera sensors and those yet to come.

Improved minimum focusing distance

With a minimum focusing distance of 40 centimetres, the wide-angle lens unlocks fascinating photographic opportunities. This capability stems from a unique dual-curve mechanism crafted by Leica's expert engineers. It notably expands the rotational range of the distance ring compared to the previous model, letting you get even closer to your subjects. The compact prime lens boasts a focus ring that allows for exceptionally quiet, smooth and easy adjustments across the entire range. Focusing is still managed through the M camera's rangefinder for up to 70 centimetres. For distances ranging from 70 to 40 centimetres, you can rely on the live view display, Visoflex 2, or the Leica FOTOS app.

Optimised design

Compact, elegant and comfortable – the Leica Summicron-M 28 f/2 ASPH. combines refined technology, premium materials and precise craftsmanship. Its configuration of nine lenses in six groups ensures shots that are rich in contrast and detail, embodying the world-renowned quality of Leica lenses – “Made in Germany”. The same high standard is evident in the lens's integrated round hood, which can be effortlessly adjusted with a single twist, enhancing both convenience and the range of photographic possibilities.
