Description
Leica Camera Inc. has introduced the Leica Super-Elmar-M 18mm/f3.8 ASPH and a matching Bright Line Finder for 18 mm lenses. The LEICA Super-Elmar-M 18mm/f3.8 ASPH is a compact lens despite its very large angle of view. It offers excellent imaging performance. Vigneting and distortion are hardly visible with the Leica Super-Elmar-M 18mm/f3.8 lens in photographical practice, aspects usually difficult to master in the design of super wide angle lenses. This lens offers extremely sharp, crystal-clear and evenly illuminated pictures from edge to edge. The lens is equipped with a rectangular, patented lens hood, contributing substantially to the compact dimensions.
Features
• On the digital M8 models, an equivalent focal length of 24mm is obtained, making the LEICA Super-Elmar-M 18mm/f3.8 ASPH a lens with a high practical suitability for the digital M
photography.

• On all analogue Leica M models, the new lense can be used with outstanding results, the
extremely short focal length of 18mm offers fascinating new possibilities in image composition.

• Reportage scenes, landscapes and architectural photography are easily accomplished with the LEICA Super-Elmar-M.

• The initial aperture of 3.8 can be used unrestrictedly as contrast and detail rendering are already excellent at this setting.
Accessories
A UV/IR Filter with a new mounting has been developed for the use of the lens in combination with the LEICA M8 models. It is placed between the lens and lens hood.
For the use of other filter types, a filter holder E77 is available, which is screwed on the lens instead of the lens hood.
