An improvement from the original Leica DG SUMMILUX Lens that became a must-have for any LUMIX G series mirrorless Micro Four Thirds photographer due to its clean optical sharpness and the unique soft-focusing background effect it can generate, now comes with a rugged dust and splash-resistant design. The f/1.4 aperture provides for super bright light gathering under difficult low light conditions while the Panasonic Nano Surface Coating nearly eliminates common ghosting and flaring that can accompany wide open aperture photography.

Stunning High Resolution

Supporting versatile use with its 50mm (35mm camera equivalent) focal length, the Leica DG SUMMILUX 25mm f/1.4 II ASPH. features stunningly high resolution and a descriptive performance from the center to the corners of the image despite its large aperture. It provides a smooth defocus for a beautiful bokeh effect that makes pictures even more impressive.

Optical Design

The lens system comprising 9 elements in 7 groups uses two aspherical lenses and one UHR (Ultra High Refractive) index lens. The UHR index lens and glass mold aspherical lenses achieve uniform description from the center to the corners. Panasonic Nano Surface Coating is also applied to minimize ghosts and flare.

High-Speed, High-Precision AF System

Incorporating an inner focus drive system and stepping motor, the Leica DG SUMMILUX 25mm f/1.4 II ASPH. is capable of smooth, silent operation to work with the camera’s high-speed, high-precision contrast AF system for both photo and video recording. It is also compatible with the sensor drive at maximum 240 fps to take maximum advantage of cameras with high-speed AF.

Ultimate Optical Quality

Opt for a Leica DG lens and get the ultimate in optical quality and performance. The sophisticated design means brilliant clarity and distortions prevented to enable precise, sharp picture rendering.

Nano Surface Coating

Put an end to unwanted ghosting and flaring – the Nano Surface Coating has been applied to lenses in the system to bring crystal-clear pictures even if you’re photographing a light source in the dark.

Rugged Design

With its dust and splash-resistant design, this lens is equipped to handle any situation, both in everyday life and when traveling. Dust and splash resistant does not guarantee that damage will not occur if this lens is subjected to direct contact with dust and water.

Perfect for Nature and Wildlife Imaging

No matter where you find your subjects – indoors, outdoors or at night – the soft-focusing effect this high-speed Leica Lens turns any scene into an evocative image. It's the lens to have for nature and wildlife imaging, as well as spur-of-the-moment everyday settings and while traveling.
