    Bright lens thanks to the high aperture value Has 12 aperture blades, this lens has a beautiful bokeh.

    A superb German made camera lense!5.0/5

    A superb German made camera lense! I have been using Leica rangefinder lenses for 40 plus years, on both film and digital cameras. They are compact, durable, fast and extremely sharp. The colors are true and bright. This 90mm 2.5 lense mounts on a 60 year old M-3 , the m-6, as well as the m-9 and the current digital rangefinder Leica cameras.

    Great, small, well balanced, sharp and flare resistant 90mm lens.5.0/5

    Great, small, well balanced, sharp and flare resistant 90mm lens. Excellent picture quality from my initial tests of the lens on my Sony A7r camera. The lens is extremely sharp and thus far appears to be flare resistant. Lens also balances and focuses extremely well as do my other Leica M and Leica R lenses.

    Great modern design lens.4.0/5

    Great modern design lens. Beautiful "crisp sharp" without Aspherical surfaces using modern computer design makes this unique. Lighter weight than Leica's other new lenses. Build quality is good though my 35mm version of this lens line has a too loose focus but I can live with it.
