Quite compact. Minimal distortion. Wide aperture. Sharp center even at f/1.4. Includes metal lens hood

Expensive. Edges suffer at wide apertures. Hood design makes filter use problematic

At $5,150 the Leica Summilux-M 35mm f/1.4 ASPH. is one of the more expensive lenses in available for rangefinder cameras. It's the fastest 35mm that Leica makes—if you want to capture more light, the Voigtlander Nokton 35mm f/1.2 II ($999) is...

No USB or HDMI connectivity
