 Leica D SUMMILUX 25mm f1.4 ASPH lens : During our meeting with Suguru Takamatsu, Coordinator Marketing Team Overseas Sales & Marketing Group and Ichiro Kitao, Product Planning Manager, from Panasonic we had a little hands-on with the new Leica D SUMMILUX 25mm f1.4 ASPH lens. The new Leica lens incorporates a large total large total of 10 lens elements in 9 groups, including a large-diameter aspherical lens. The bright standard f/1.4 lens provides a superb high-quality optical performance. The large diameter front lens ensures sufficient peripheral light levels, and a large-diameter front aspherical lens reduces light degradation all the way to the lens periphery. The result is high resolution and absolutely minimum lens distortion.

According to Suguru Takamatsu the new Leica 25mm f/1.4 lens will be available next year, around April 2007. This lens matches the quality Panasonic are looking for and combining this lens with the Panasonic L1 will result into a powerful high-quality combination. Handy is the aperture ring and the focus ring on the Leica D SUMMILUX 25mm f1.4 ASPH lens. By incorporating these rings we provide the same kind of intuitive operation as with the traditional film camera.

When holding this lens, it weighs around 525 g, you immediate feel the quality of the material and you experience the professional look and feel of such a high-quality lens. The seven aperture blades of the lens create a rounded shape. This combines with the f/1.4 brightness to produce a beautiful smoothness in out-of-focus areas at larger aperture. The D SUMMILUX 25mm f/1.4 ASPH lens incorporates multi-coated lenses that reduce ghosts and flare to an absolute minimum, helping the Leica lens deliver an optical performance that meets the high-quality Leica standards.
