The new Light Lens Lab 35mm f/2 “Apochromatic” lens for Leica M-mount is now available for order
The previously reported Light Lens Lab 35mm f/2 “Apochromatic” lens for Leica M-mount is now available for order:
Titanium Limited Edition will only be available for preorder from August 10th through September 10th, 2026.
- New Apochromatic Series: Incorporating four aspherical elements and multiple elements made from ultra-low-dispersion and anomalous partial-dispersion elements.
- Refined Optical Performance: New high-transmission multilayer coating suppresses chromatic aberration and purple fringing. Designed for excellent sharpness, distortion control, edge-to-edge performance, smooth out-of-focus rendering, and natural transitions.
- Close-Focusing Capability: The floating optical system maintains consistent performance throughout the focusing range, including at the minimum focusing distance of 0.3 metres.
- Precision Construction: High-precision optical and mechanical components are developed in-house. Miniature bearings within the focusing mechanism provide smooth, accurate operation, designed for everyday use.
- Two Barrel Configurations: Choose a smooth barrel without knurling or a close-focus-knurled barrel for improved grip. Both configurations use the same optical design. The smooth barrel is a limited-time option available to order through December 2026; production will then transition to the close-focus-knurled configuration.
Expected Fulfillment
- Without Knurling: Initial shipments begin September 30, 2026, and continue through November 2026.
- With Knurling: Shipments begin in December 2026 and continue through January 2027.
Due to limited production capacity and the exceptional demands of manufacturing apochromatic optics, each lens will initially be produced and assembled individually by our team. Customers should anticipate extended lead times between ordering and fulfillment. Production updates and any significant delays will be communicated by email and through our social media channels.
