Brand Leica System Leica M

The Leica APO-Telyt-M 135mm f/3.4 is the longest and most precise telephoto in the M-System, engineered for razor-sharp detail at distance. Apochromatic correction and an aspherical surface suppress chromatic aberration almost completely, so contrast and clarity hold up across the frame even at full aperture.

Despite its reach, the solid aluminum-and-brass barrel stays compact and well balanced, with a close-focus distance of 1.5 m that's unusually short for a 135mm. If you shoot portraits, wildlife detail, or distant architecture on your M, our team can help you get the most from this reference-grade telephoto.

Buy from an authorized Leica dealer like Camera West to ensure a genuine product with full manufacturer warranty and expert support.

Reach Without Compromise

The longest focal length in the Leica M-System, the APO-Telyt-M 135mm delivers consistently strong sharpness and contrast across the entire frame, even wide open at f/3.4.

Apochromatic Clarity

Apochromatic correction and an aspherical surface enable near-total suppression of chromatic aberrations, using specialized glass with anomalous partial dispersion to keep color fringing at bay under demanding contrast.

Refined M-System Handling

A solid aluminum and brass housing keeps this telephoto compact and well balanced, with precise, fluid manual focusing down to 1.5 m and an integrated, extendable lens hood for flare control.
