Premium 35mm f/2 M-mount lens with apochromatic correction, 30cm close focus, and exceptional optical performance for documentary and portrait photography.
The APO-Summicron-M 35 f/2 ASPH. represents a resolute take on a focal length that has long defined documentary photography. Owing to its exceptional optical performance, this lens distinguishes itself even within the M-Lens range. With its remarkably short close focus distance of just 30 centimeters, outstanding sharpness, distinctive bokeh effect and impressive f/2 lens speed, this example of German craftsmanship opens up the widest creative potential. Here, every detail is clear, every tone nuance distinct, every texture vibrant – unembellished, yet delivered with a clarity that resonates.
This premium M-lens features ten lens elements arranged in five groups, including four aspherical surfaces and multiple elements composed of special glass featuring anomalous partial dispersion. A floating lens element maintains consistently high image quality throughout the full focal range and distance settings. The focus ring has a particularly large rotational throw of 300°, giving ample range for extremely precise focusing even throughout the extended close-focus range. Thanks to apochromatic correction, the APO-Summicron-M 35 f/2 ASPH. achieves exceptional sharpness and imaging quality even with an open aperture, remaining free from colour aberrations, even at high-contrast edges or under backlighting.
Crafted in Wetzlar, Germany, the lens is produced to the most exacting standards of precision engineering. The f/2 lens speed enables natural separation and delivers a gentle yet well-defined bokeh effect, making it exceptional for expressive portraits or finely detailed urban scenes. This meticulously crafted lens sets standards and remains reliable for decades, offering professional photographers and enthusiasts the creative scope to explore the 35mm focal length with exceptional attention to detail.
