Summicron 35mm f2, 8 elements, made in Germany.
A lens full of functional beauty with a chrome barrel. Not only does it deliver impressive imagery, but it also showcases the craftsmanship characteristic of Leitz's golden era. This is a legendary Leica lens.
Leitz product code is SAWOM / 11308. Manufactured in 1963. The minimum focusing distance is 0.7m. The lens provides soft rendering at wider apertures, but stopping down a bit enhances the sense of depth, and further stopping down results in sharp rendering. A renowned Leitz lens with a wide range of photographic expressions. Above all, its sophisticated styling remains timeless even today.
Compatible original hoods are ITDOO or IROOA. A lens that excels both in use and aesthetics.
There are small scuffs on the base of the barrel from mounting and dismounting on the body. The matte chrome parts show minimal signs of use and remain clean.
Fully serviced in 2022, including focus adjustment. Thanks to careful maintenance, the operation of all parts still remains smooth. The infinity lock fits perfectly. Rangefinder coupling is precise. The internal anti-reflection matte lacquer has been carefully reapplied, ensuring crisp image rendering.
There are a few very light cleaning marks on the rear element, but they have no impact on shooting. The coating is fully intact, and the glass is generally very clean. Comes with original front and rear caps.
