Leica Normal 50mm f/2.8 Elmar M Manual Focus Lens (6-Bit, Updated for Digital) - Black USA
If compact dimensions and light weight are more important to you than high speed, then this classic lens is for you. The lens barrel can be collapsed into the camera body, making your Leica M extra slim and handy. The utilization of new optical glasses and optical computation produce an outstanding performer. Also available in chrome.
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
- Compact, collapsible standard lens
