This is the compact and highly modern LEICA ELMAR-M 24mm f/3.8 ASPH lens, a superb wide-angle optic designed for the Leica M rangefinder system. Known for its outstanding edge-to-edge sharpness and minimal distortion, the Elmar-M 24mm ASPH is an excellent choice for landscape, architectural, and street photography.

The ASPH (Aspherical) element ensures pristine image quality and high contrast, even when shooting wide open. Its relatively slow f/38 aperture allows for a remarkably compact size, which is highly valued for discrete M-system shooting.

The lens features the modern Leica M-Mount with the characteristic focus tab for fast, intuitive zone focusing, making it a powerful and portable wide-angle tool for both film and digital M bodies.
