Agree with these wishes would add a 14mm f2 or f2.8. Sigma is offering a 14 f1.4 but looking at the prototypes just too big. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only made in Germany Summilux-TL are on the pipeline. Using same body as TL-35 and TL-60. Same industrial strategy as APO-Summicron-SL In a distant future, we should be able to choose between a collection of small enough Summilux-TL line for APS-C or a collection of bigger APO-Summicron-SL for 24x36. What do you choose ? Quite small, fast lenses for half frame ? Or Quite big, not as fast lenses, but weathersealed for full frame ? How the company that gave us all those wonderful (APO) Telyts can entertain the notion that a camera system should stop at 200 mm is quite beyond me. Have they sold their soul to Sigma? Come to think of it, let’s start pestering the L alliance for decent long glass And maybe an APS-C fisheye? 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicci78 Posted September 1, 2019 Share #23 Posted September 1, 2019 Only eyes for full frame sadly. Same thing with Sony, Canon and Nikon. And soon Panasonic ? Only Fujifilm and Ricoh/Pentax care about APS-C. But both have small medium format 33x44 as backup plan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 10, 2019 Share #24 Posted September 10, 2019 (edited) A 14mm and 23mm Summilux would be fantastic. Not getting my hopes up though as Leica has only released 1 lens in the last 3 years and that was a 80g pancake one...

Given the whole range from infinity to 1 cm, the lens goes into panic mode. I don't have the 35mm TL to compare it with, but speed has never been a concern for me, and I use it mainly for people. I now have a 60mm and set the Focus Limit, it is quick to focus 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
