numerous years of optical and precision mechanical encounters and are manufactured employing exacting technologies, the highest of
utilizing materials and strong commitment combined with the craftsmanship of knowledgeable personnel. No one else can dispense true Leica
excellence to your photographs.
Jan 28, 2011 The Leica lens "6-bit" coding, allows the M digital camera to optically read
lens information and then identify the lens being mounted. Optionally the M camera can then apply a software based "last stage" vignetting adjustment (for images captured in RAW, the lens mounted is simply recorded, with no changes made).
Additionally, Cosina has manufactured an immense variety of
Voigtlander and
Zeiss Lenses the Leica M rangefinder mount, and the Leica S mount

Zoom 28-35-50 Tri-Elmar
The Leica 28-35-50 Tri-Elmar is a somewhat small lens; almost identical in size as the prior 28-35-50 Tri-Elmar. The methods that let Leica
keep the lens small was to limit the maximum aperture
size to f/4 and to make a special combined lens hood and
filter holder due to the front element protruding beyond
the front side of the actual lens housing.
The focal length selection ring has an accurate feeling; and it's much better than the one the original Tri-Elmar.
