Four lower cost lenses designed for use with either analogue or digital rangefinder cameras from Leica will arrive in the UK at the end of next month.
The Summarit-M range is claimed to offer all of the benefits of Leica's expertise but have a 'lower price to appeal to a broader market'. Prices range from �690 to �890 for the 35, 50, 75 and 90mm focal length lenses - all of which have a maximum aperture of f/2.5.
The new lenses are built around high-refraction optical glass types 'featuring particularly good homogeneity and purity', special glass with partial anomalous dispersion such as fluorophosphate and heavy barium flint glass, aspherical elements, apochromatic optics and modern multi-coatings. These elements are used in a newly developed spherical design, which has kept the lenses compact.
