Description
A compact, light and fast standard lens, the Summicron-SL 50 f/2 ASPH. shows its strength in almost every situation, from portraits and street to travel and reportage, while its quick, quiet autofocus makes it equally suited to high-end video. At about half the weight of the APO-Summicron-SL, it keeps the famous Summicron look: strong contrast, vivid colours and a distinctive shallow depth of field.
Its new optical design uses nine elements in eight groups, including three aspherical elements that reduce chromatic aberration and distortion for high image and video quality in a small, light body. A linear direct drive provides fast, smooth and especially quiet focusing, down to a close focus of 0.45 m.
Built from a magnesium and aluminium full-metal housing with dust and splash protection and using the E67 filter size, it pairs perfectly with the SL cameras as a versatile everyday lens.
