Leica Vario-Elmar-R 70-210mm f/4 is a manual focus ultra telephoto zoom lens for full frame cameras.

Optical design

Great choice mainly for good light conditions Has 7 aperture blades, mid-grade lenses usually have this amount of blades. Having rounded blades provides out of focus circle shape closer to a circle.

Physical characteristics

158 mm long, with this size carry only if you use it. Weights 720 grams so it is a heavy lens, consider using its own lens bag. With a lens filter diameter of 60 mm you are one step from the next standard filter size, buy step-up ring and bigger filter you may want to use a step-up ring and 67 or 77mm filter.
