Leica Camera AG has announced the introduction of the Noctilux-M 35 f/1.2 ASPH, marking the inaugural time the esteemed Noctilux designation has been applied to a 35mm focal length within its M-series lens lineage. This model upholds the series' historical association with exceptionally wide apertures and superior optical engineering that can deliver pronounced contrast, a shallow depth of field, and a smooth bokeh quality.
Leica Camera AG's Noctilux-M 35 f/1.2 ASPH lens is designed for compatibility with Leica M cameras, and its inclusion will offer a closer minimum focusing distance than previous Noctilux models. The 35mm perspective is widely favored for documentary, street, and environmental portrait photography because it provides a natural field of view that includes subject context. By endowing this focal length with a very wide f/1.2 aperture, Leica provides a tool that excels in low-light conditions and offers exceptional control over focus isolation.
