The Leica Summaron-M 28mm f/5.6 Lens is a modern interpretation of the iconic 1955 screw-mount design, now equipped with M-mount bayonet and 6-bit coding for seamless digital rangefinder integration. Its ultra-compact profile—measuring less than 20mm in length—makes it the perfect everyday companion for street photography and spontaneous shooting. The symmetrical six-element, four-group optical design delivers distinctive analog character with natural contrast, fine detail rendition, and characteristic vignetting that adds aesthetic depth to every frame. Manual focus operation with a minimum focusing distance of 1m, combined with an integrated depth of field scale, enables precise pre-focusing for faster, more intuitive capture. The included solid brass lens hood complements the lens's classic aesthetic while protecting against stray light. Built for photographers who value discretion, optical purity, and timeless design.

Key Features:

  • Modeled after the original screw mount version from 1955, this revised edition utilizes the same classic optical design but updated with contemporary materials and 6-bit coding to better support working with digital rangefinder cameras.
  • Both a wide-angle field of view and discreet profile, which measures less than 20mm long, make this lens ideal for street photography and other everyday shooting applications.
  • Classic symmetrical optical design uses six elements in four groups to achieve a distinctly analog appearance with natural contrast, fine rendition of details and sharpness, and noticeable vignetting for an aesthetic, unique image quality.
  • Manual focus design provides a minimum focusing distance of 1m with a maximum magnification ratio of 1:33.4. An integrated depth of field scale aids when using pre-focusing techniques, and a long focus throw offers greater precision for isolating subjects in the frame.
  • Included lens hood is machined from solid brass to further recall the historical character of the lens.
