The Leica Summicron-SL 35 f/2 ASPH opens up a wide range of applications: from landscape, street and reportage photography to close-ups. Thanks to the fast and silent focusing, the compact standard lens is also suitable for high-end videography.

The SUMMICRON-SL 35mm f/2 is a perfect daily lens. The classical reportage focal length of 35mm can be used very flexible. The new optical design brings an exceptional image quality and a small and light weighted body at the same time. The lens fits perfectly to the SL2 and SL2-S.

More ease when photographing and filming

The standard fixed focal length opens up a wide range of applications: from landscapes and street photography to photojournalism and close-ups up to 0.24 m. The seamless autofocus of the SL lens ensures quick and smooth focusing – while remaining extremely quiet. This makes the SL lens ideal for demanding videography with the famed Summicron look. It is also very lightweight at 370 grams. It’s nearly half the weight of the high-performance APO-Summicron-SL with apochromatic lenses. The perfect setup to make sure you are in the right place at the right time.
