Leica 75mm f/2.0 APO-Summicron-M Aspherical 75mm

★★★★★ 5.0 (4)

Its 75mm focal length and f/2 aperture with apochromatic correction from 7 elements in 5 groups deliver sharp, low-distortion images with a natural perspective. The lens weighs just 431g and includes a built-in retractable hood, while a floating element enables precise manual focus down to 0.7m for isolating subjects. This is best for Leica M-mount portrait photographers who need a lightweight telephoto with smooth bokeh and true-to-life rendering.
