A Homage to Analogue Black-and-White Photography

 

Analogue photography is a conscious choice in favour of craftsmanship, a slower pace, and trust in our own ability to capture an image. It’s a choice that can be made at any time, as in our present day, the analogue world exists alongside the digital. But the results vary – in their aesthetics and in their character. With its distinctive look, our Leica MONOPAN 50 black-and-white film recalls the early days of 35 mm photography. It takes us back to 1925, when we presented the revolutionary Leica I to the world.

 

36 High-Resolution Shots

 

Leica MONOPAN 50 boasts an ultra-fine grain and super-panchromatic sensitivity. The film can be processed in all black-and-white developers. Its ultra-high resolution produces shots with extraordinary sharpness and remarkable tonal value reproduction. The low light sensitivity of ISO 50, combined with our fast M-Lenses, makes shots with a wide aperture possible even in bright lighting conditions – for that unmistakable Leica bokeh.

 

 

 

This is what we have been waiting for! I amtold availability sometime in July !

 

 

This is the highest performance wide-angle lens in the history of Voigtlander lenses, an extremely high-performance lens optimized for full-frame M-mount sensors. The apochromatic design reduces the axial chromatic aberration of the three primary colors of light, RGB, to as close to zero as possible, thoroughly eliminating various aberrations while also pursuing the ultimate in resolution and contrast reproduction.

 

Apochromatic Design

 
In addition to thoroughly eliminating various aberrations including axial chromatic aberration, we also pursue the ultimate in resolution and contrast reproduction.

Optical glass and mechanical components deliver high performance

 
The lens consists of 12 elements in 8 groups, including 6 elements of anomalous partial dispersion glass and 2 double-sided aspherical lenses, and is also equipped with a floating
mechanism.
