This short telephoto prime is an ideal tool for portraiture - designed specifically for full-frame L-mount mirrorless cameras. It has a bright f/2 maximum aperture for use in low-light, granting you improved control over the depth of field when isolating your subject matter. The 90mm f2 APO-Summicron-SL Asph lens has been constructed with the same care and technical intricacies as with all Leica lenses. It has key apochromatic capabilities, boasting anomalous partial dispersion glass to effectively suppress colour fringing and chromatic aberrations. This ensures high-end colour accuracy and clarity, whilst spherical aberrations are greatly reduced by the intricately positioned aspherical element. Flare and ghosting are minimised by the multi-layer optical coating, while an AquaDura coating has been applied to protect against moisture and other damaging elements. The intricately designed Dual Syncro Drive gives image-makers precise and almost silent autofocus, granting you creative freedom without feeling over

The Tech Talk
This short 90mm f/2 telephoto lens has been designed specifically for full-frame Leica L-mount mirrorless cameras. It can, however, be used with APS-C models - providing a 135mm equivalent focal length. You are provided with a bright f/2 maximum aperture that excels in low-light, whilst affording greater control over the depth of field when honing your selective focusing techniques. APO (apochromatic) lenses such as this Leica 90mm f/2 utilise anomalous partial dispersion glass to effectively suppress chromatic aberrations throughout the entire aperture range. This leads to superior colour-accuracy, clarity, and sharpness. Individual lens elements have also been applied with multi-layer coatings to suppress damaging surface reflections, flaring, and ghosting. To reduce spherical aberrations and image-distortion for a sharp, clean image from edge to edge - one aspherical element is employed.
Focus Fully On The Creative
The intricately designed Dual Syncro Drive gives photographers precise and almost silent autofocus to suit both still and moving-image application. In regard to intimate portraiture, this is a great feature to make your subject feel more at ease and gives you the freedom to concentrate on creative composition - without feeling over intrusive. It also benefits the full-time manual focus override. This lens further utilises a floating element to ensure clarity and sharpness throughout its vast focusing range (0.7m to infinity). Due to Leica's detail-oriented manufacturing process, Summicron-SL lenses are almost identical in design with very similar centres of gravity. Therefore, the MF ring's position upon the lens barrel will be familiar, your SL camera setup will always sit comfortably within the hand, and working with a tripod becomes a breeze.
Built To Last
An effective water-repellent AquaDura coating has been applied to the front and rear optical surfaces of this lens to protect it from moisture and other damaging elements. This 90mm f2 further utilises a weather-sealed design, protecting against dust and moisture when shooting out in the field. As with the majority of Leica products, this lens is compact, lightweight, and sits comfortably within your grasp. It is clear to see that this 90mm f2 has been constructed to withstand a long working life under professional shooting conditions.
