Leica 50mm f/1.4 Summilux M Aspherical Lens (6-bit updated for digital) - Black Overview You are bidding on a barely-used Leica 50mm f/1.4 Summilux M Aspherical Lens. This is the latest version with the 6-bit digital codes for the Leica M8 and M9 digital rangefinders. This lens is in 100% like-new condition. I'm the original owner and the lens has only been taken out once or twice and has otherwise sat on the shelf as a collector's item. It's never been dropped, damaged, mishandled, or repaired in any way. The lens is still under warranty with a little over two months of coverage remaining. Note: The included case is actually a brand new original Leica case from a Summilux 35mm f/1.4. It's slightly larger than the original case, which I misplaced, but it's still a pretty good fit for the 50mm. This is the closest replacement case I was able to obtain. All other original packing materials and accessories are included: front and rear lens caps, blank warranty card, instructions, and the original box. Description The Leica SUMMILUX-M 50mm f/1.4 ASPH. delivers virtually the same outstanding performance throughout all apertures and focus settings. Whether using selective focus at close range, high-contrast available light applications or an extended depth of field to capture landscapes, this lens handles every situation with ease. Every innovation currently available in lens technology - aspherical lenses, glass with anomalous partial dispersion, glass with a high refraction index and a floating element - has been combined to create a lens that sets the new standard in this focal length class. An extremely fast standard lens that is used a great deal in reportage photography. Its extraordinary speed of f/1.4 permits usable shutter speeds even in poor light situations. This lens has been updated with the "6-bit" coding, which allows the digital M camera to read this information optically and to identify which lens is being used. The camera can then (optionally) apply a "final stage" software based vignetting correction (for RAW images the lens used is simply recorded, no change is made). Includes "6-bit code" which allows the digital M8 camera to identify which lens is being used, and also to store this information in image metadata High-speed, high-contrast normal lens for Leica's M series Finger focusing grip allows for one-finger focusing control Built-in, lockable telescoping lens hood Specifications Filter Size: 46mm f/Stop Range: 1.4-16 Minimum Focus Distance: 2.3' (0.7 m) Magnification: 1:11.3 Angle of View: 47° Groups/Elements: 5/8 Length: 2.1" (52.5mm) Maximum Diameter: 2.1" (53.5mm) Weight: 11.8 oz (335 g) Payment and Shipping Payment via PayPal Free shipping within the continental U.S.A. (No international shipping and no local pickup please). Shipment within one business day of payment confirmation. Images

Leica X1 Kit Digital Camera Unsurpassed performance in a compact package There's one thing that all Leica cameras share: each is born of the desire to develop cameras that deliver the best picture quality in the world. The Leica X1 is the direct beneficiary of 100-plus years of German engineering experience and it delivers the best picture quality in its class - in the proud Leica tradition. This elegant camera features a professional CMOS image sensor that's as large as those in high-quality SLRs. Combined with an outstanding Leica lens it captures images of unmatched brilliance. Any way you look at it, the Leica X1 is a winner: It's conveniently compact, its controls are intuitive, and it offers a full range of sophisticated automatic functions. A real Leica "Made in Germany". HDMI outputConveniently CompactIntuitive ControlsFull range of sophisticated automatic functions Manufacturer's Description The LEICA ELMARIT 24 mm f/2.8 ASPH. Countless iconic images in the history of photography were shot with a fixed focal length of 35 mm. This focal length is considered to be a classic for reportage photography, and has lost none of its timeless charisma today. The Leica Elmarit 24 mm f/2.8 ASPH. is a true Leica lens with terrific optical performance. When seen in terms of 35-mm film format, it has precisely this legendary focal length of 35 mm. SIMPLE HANDLING & COMPLETE CONTROL The LEICA X1 offers versatile photography in terms of its numerous automatic functions and manual individual settings. The photographer can choose the easy way and let the camera take the lead over exposure or shutter settings in the automatic mode or switch over to manual controls by using the wheels on top of the camera. Thus the X1 allows the photographer to keep full control for individual creative art work and at the same time provides the automatic mode to ensure the capability for quick response. AUTOFOCUS COMPETENCE The autofocus of the X1 enables photographers to react in an instant. At the same time, the autofocus mode can be modified to suit the situation. Photographers have a choice of 1 or 11 AF segments and an additional high-speed mode for each. When taking photos of people, face-recognition mode allows complete concentration on the composition and framing of the picture. UNIVERSAL FORMATS & WORKFLOW Whenever you want, the X1 transforms image data into JPEG files for immediate use as quick as a flash. At the same time, photographers may also choose to store image files in the Adobe Digital Negative Format (DNG), a format that allows image-relevant exploitation of all the benefits of the recorded sensor data. With Adobe® Photoshop® Lightroom®, a professional digital workflow solution, also available as an online download free of charge for all Leica X1 customers.

Leica 21mm f2.8 ASPH Silver Chrome *MINT* This auction is for an absolutely mint/like new condition Leica 21mm f2.8 ASPH Chrome lens. The Chrome version is rare and highly sought after and this is your opportunity to own a collectible piece of Leica gear. This lens complete in box with case and instructions. This compact extreme wide-angle lens produces outstanding contrast and detail rendition at full aperture. The pro-verbial Leica image quality is preserved even in the close-up range. Distortion is minimal and negligible in photographic practice. At f/5.6 this lens is free of artificial vignetting. With all these qualities, it is ideally suited for dramatic effects with monumental foregrounds and strongly receding backgrounds with distant horizons. Because an extremely large depth-of-field is already achieved with a slightly stopped- down aperture, sharp dramatic pictures can be made during live reportage photography.
