If you go to a Leica store, you will find that this lens is the most popular star. 35mm has always been Leica’s most popular lens, and many newbies to Leica will choose this lens with the Leica M10p as their preferred configuration. One of the best 35mm prime lenses in the world.
The Leica asph lens is sharp, high contrast, beautiful blur, and has almost no shortcomings. The quality of f1.4 can reach the sharpness and contrast of f4 lenses of other brands. Narrowing the aperture is no longer a way to improve image quality. It achieves similar image quality from minimum to maximum aperture, and the only thing you have to think about is the depth of field change. However, it has also been said by many that it lacks personality, and the style barely changes at each aperture.
The second version of Summilux 35 1.4ASPH is warmer in color, and many people like it wide open. Although it is not as sharp as the third version, the bokeh is more charming.
The summicron 35mm f2 ASPH is similar in size to the summilux 35 1.4 asph, just shorter, and the first piece of glass is also recessed. Actually summicron ASPH is derived from summilux. But in use, I feel that summilux’s anti-glare ability is actually better than summicron. I don’t know if it’s an illusion.
