The Summicron-T has a focal length of 23mm – in terms of 35mm format, this corresponds to 35mm – the focal length of the legendary Leica lenses for reportage photography. A truly classical focal length that lets you realize the pictures you see in your mind’s eye and exploit the potential of creative expression! Just as legendary is the maximum aperture of f/2, with which you can bring to life the unmistakable Leica bokeh. And create your own iconic photos.
