ENGINEERING DRAWING LENS SHAPE Aspherical lens This new high-speed lens is the most compact of Leica M lenses. By using an aspherical element it was possible to attain top imaging performance with a weight of only 175 grams. This lens is practically distortion-free in the whole focus range from 0.7 m to infinity and only extends slightly into the viewfinder field of M cameras.

  • Cfkug M2 for Photographic Perfection the LEICA M 2 Captures Every Photographic Situation Swiftly and Surely
    111-37d/Engl. l cfkug M2 for photographic perfection The LEICA M 2 captures every photographic situation swiftly and surely. Its unsurpassed range­ viewfinder enables even the beginner to focus easily, rapidly, and with unerring accuracy, regardless of the existing lighting conditions. The brilliantly illuminated focal frames for the 35-, 50- and 90 mm lenses are automatically parallax-compensated at all focusing distances. Inserting anyone of these three prime picture-makers into the LEICA M 2's quick-change bayonet lens-mount automat­ ically brings the correct frame into the viewfinder, and a preselector lever is provided so that the user can determine the effect of these three focal lengths without actually changing lenses. Accurate exposure setting is ensured by the accessory LEICAMETER MC which couples to the camera's non­ spinning shutter-speed selector dial. Sturdily constructed and easy to use, the LEICA M 2 combines traditional LEITZ precision, rugged­ ness and reliability with almost unbelievable versatility. The VISOFLEX II, a key part of the LEICA SYSTEM offers the additional possibility of reflex groundglass focusing and viewing with focal lengths from 65- through 400 mm, and a number of LEICA lenses may actually be used with both rangefinder and reflex focusing. For further details please request our brochure No. 111-40 I describing the VISOFLEX II and Na. 111-341 about the full range of Leica lenses.

  • El Módulo Digital R De Leica Efraín García Y Rubén Osuna@
    El módulo digital R de Leica Efraín García y Rubén Osuna@ En este artículo vamos a analizar el módulo digital R de Leica Camera, la mítica marca alemana que estableció el formato de 135mm como un estándar en el mundo fotográfico y ayudó a popularizar la fotografía. Lo haremos mediante una comparación con la Canon 1Ds Mark II (dos buenos análisis: 1, 2), cámara de formato completo de 35mm con 16,7 millones de píxeles (la cámara réflex actual con más resolución). Esta es la primera propuesta digital de Leica en el segmento de cámaras profesionales, dejando a un lado la extraña cámara de barrido S1 Pro, que al parecer también podía montar objetivos R. El lanzamiento tiene lugar en un momento decisivo para la supervivencia de la empresa. Vaya por delante que no es una prueba sistemática ni científica. Más que un análisis, el presente artículo se puede considerar un modesto cuaderno de bitácora. Hemos tratado de compensar lo informal del tratamiento con información complementaria, de manera que la lectura de este texto resulte, además de amena, una buena introducción al apasionante mundo de las Leica y una guía completa para el interesado. En definitiva, las premisas de las que partimos son las mismas que acompañaron nuestro anterior análisis comparativo de objetivos Leica sobre cámaras Canon o el análisis de la Contax N Digital. 1 Vista frontal de la Leica R9 equipada con el módulo digital R y con el zoom 28-90mm. Un poco de historia Todo parece indicar que el proyecto de fabricar un respaldo digital responde a una vieja idea de Leica que influyó en el diseño de las cámaras réflex de película R8 y R9 diez años atrás.
