The Leica 90mm has had many iteration over the years, each with their own unique character and in some cases, specific uses. This standard telephoto focal length allows photographers to pull in their surroundings to create a sense of scale otherwise unattainable with standard or wider focal lengths.
Building off a Strong Foundation
The Leica 90mm f2 Apo-Summicron-M ASPH (11884) is the fourth iteration of the 90mm f2 Summicron for the M system and features apochromatic lens corrections in order to enhance the clarity and crispness of very fine textural details and edge sharpness of subject outlines. The fast aperture allows for very sharp in-focus details and smooth out of focus areas, creating an almost 3 dimensional pop within compositions.
Maximizing Possibilities
Additionally, the combination of the telephoto focal length and apochromatic lens corrections allows photographers to maximize the Leica M11-P‘s (20211/20214) high resolution 60mp BSI sensor, resulting in true to life color rendition and contrast. By playing with scale, focal plane, layers, and subject matter you can unlock a plethora of compositional possibilities, almost like creating small vignettes into the larger scenes of your location.
