Description
This is an opportunity to own one of Leica's most technologically advanced and highly coveted lenses: the Leica Noctilux-M 75mm f/1.25 ASPH. The Noctilux series is legendary for its extreme speed and ability to create stunning, three-dimensional portraits with exceptional subject isolation and beautiful bokeh, even in extremely low light.
With a maximum aperture of f/1.25, this lens sets a new benchmark for shallow depth-of-field and light gathering capabilities in the M system. The ASPH designation highlights the use of aspherical elements to control spherical aberration, ensuring maximum sharpness across the field, even wide open. Its 75mm focal length is ideal for portraiture on full-frame M bodies, providing natural compression and distance.
The lens features a removable focusing grip (visible attached in the photos) for enhanced handling and precise focusing. The distance and aperture scales are clearly engraved, and the build quality is typical of Leica—robust, all-metal construction.
