Brand Leica System Leica M

The Leica Noctilux-M 50mm f/0.95 ASPH is the fastest aspherical lens Leica makes, and one of the most legendary optics in photography. Eight elements in five groups, including aspherical surfaces and anomalous partial dispersion glass, combine with a floating element to hold image quality even at its extraordinary f/0.95 maximum aperture.

The result is an incredibly shallow depth of field, soft and distinctive bokeh, and unmatched low-light capability that no other 50mm can match. This is a lens photographers dream about, and our team would be glad to put one in your hands and help you experience the Noctilux rendering firsthand.

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

The Legendary f/0.95

As the fastest aspherical lens for full-frame photography, the Noctilux-M 50mm f/0.95 offers the widest maximum aperture of any Leica lens for a rendering that is simply unmatched.

Master of Available Light

The extraordinary f/0.95 aperture makes this lens purpose-built for extreme low-light photography, letting you shoot in conditions where other optics simply can't.

Sculpted Bokeh & Subject Separation

An extremely shallow depth of field produces soft, distinctive bokeh and a beautiful focal gradient, isolating subjects with a three-dimensional quality that is the Noctilux signature.

Precision Craftsmanship

Eight elements in five groups with aspherical surfaces and a floating design maintain high image quality at close range, all within a hand-built barrel featuring an integrated, lockable lens hood.
