First review of the new Leica 35mm Summilux-M

By LR admin | Published: May 17, 2010

Erwin Puts published the first part review of the new Leica 35mm Summilux lens:

“The new SX35FLE is a definite improvement over its predecessor. But the main advantages are to be found in the focusing range from 1 meter to 3 or even 4 meters. There the performance gain is visible and to be appreciated.”
