Overview

The Leica Summilux-M 21mm f/1.4 Asph is an ultra-wide, ultra-fast lens prized for its unique character and solid build. It delivers a natural perspective at the edge of wide-angle without distortion, but exhibits softness wide open and aberrations that affect bokeh balls. Build quality is exceptional, feeling like a tank with tight tolerances. It suits photographers willing to get close and work with its distinct rendering, though its high price makes it a luxury item.
