Depth of focus redefined

For more than 50 years, the name Noctilux has been synonymous with exceptional technology, extending the limits of what is technically possible, and founded on the outstanding quality delivered by German mechanical and optical engineering.

The new Leica Noctilux-M 75 mm f/1.25 ASPH. is set to become a legend in its own right with its incredibly shallow depth of field in combination with exceptional imaging performance, and a uniquely soft bokeh.

Its optical design allows precise, exceptionally detailed isolation of subjects form their background to create images of unique character. With a focal length of 75 mm, it is predestined for the creation of portraits with a natural look. A lens for M- and SL-Photographers who are seeking something truly special and know how to make best use of creativity in their imagery.

Technical details

The optical design of the Leica Noctilux-M 75 mm f/1.25 ASPH. features nine elements in six groups. Two aspherical elements are included in the design to ensure optimum imaging performance across the entire image frame. Thanks to a floating element, this is also maintained from the closest focusing distance of 0.85 m to infinity.

This exceptionally short focusing distance for a fast lens, and a reproduction ratio of 1:8.8, underline the particular suitability of the lens for portraits and highly detailed reproductions.

The harmonious bokeh of the lens is the result of the round aperture created by the eleven blades of its iris. An integrated, lockable lens hood protects the lens against dirt and stray light. Thanks to its enormous resolving power, the Leica 75 mm f/1.25 ASPH. is ideally equipped for the future and delivers exceptional quality when cropping images captured by sensors with smaller pixels.

Exceptional design in every respect

The excellence of the 75 mm f/1.25 ASPH. is by no means limited to its technical performance. The visible and tactile quality and craftsmanship, and a focus on essential features so typical of Leica products also makes it particularly impressive.
