LEICA NOCTILUX-M 75 F / 1.25 ASPH. BLACK REF: 11676

Leica Noctilux-M 75mm f / 1.25 ASPH. Black

Rivaled in speed only by its legendary 50mm sibling, the Noctilux-M 75mm f / 1.25 ASPH. The Leica is a portrait-length high-speed prime characterized by its ability to isolate the subject, render subjects in a unique way, and perform admirably in low-light conditions. Beyond the wide maximum aperture, this 75mm f / 1.25 is also distinguished by its sophisticated optical composition that uses only anomalous partial dispersion and low chromatic dispersion glass to suppress color stripes and chromatic aberrations for high clarity. Two aspherical elements are also featured to ensure remarkable sharpness and low dispersion, and a floating element system is employed at the rear of the design to maintain consistent image quality across the entire focus range from 2.8 'to infinity. Additionally, this lens has an 11-blade diaphragm to produce an especially pleasing appearance,
The extremely fast maximum aperture of f / 1.25 offers remarkable control over depth of field for selective focus shooting, and also benefits the portable device from working in low light conditions.
The short 75mm focal length telephoto lens offers a slightly compressed image quality that is well suited for portraits and close-up images, especially when used in conjunction with the shallow depth of field offered by the bright maximum aperture.
The nine-element, six-group optical design is made up entirely of anomalous partial dispersion and low color dispersion lenses to significantly reduce color fringes and produce images with a high degree of clarity.
Two large diameter aspherical elements are also used to control spherical aberrations to improve sharpness and reduce distortion.
A rear floating element system is used to maintain consistent image quality throughout the focus range, even at a minimum focus distance of 2.8 '.
An 11-blade diaphragm produces a nice, rounded bokeh quality.
The built-in extendable hood shades and protects the front element to reduce flare and ghosting of the lens. Additionally, the front of the lens is threaded to accept 67mm thread filters.
A tripod adapter is included to facilitate easy and safe use of this lens when shooting from a tripod.
