The Leica Noctilux-M 50mm f/1.2 ASPH. is a faithful reinterpretation of the legendary 1966 original, the world's first serially produced lens with two aspherical elements. Leica retained the original optical calculation, adapting it only minimally to modern glass and production methods, so six elements in four groups preserve the classic character while meeting today's standards.

For you, that means a soft, almost dreamlike rendering wide open with distinctive vintage bokeh, then sharp, modern results as you stop down. The sixteen-blade aperture and click-on hood complete the experience, and the lens arrives in packaging inspired by the original, right down to the classic transparent lens container.

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

We utilize various shipping carriers, with FedEx Express being our primary choice for 2-Day and Overnight shipping within the US, as well as International deliveries.

We accept returns within 14 days of delivery, subject to a restocking fee of up to 15%. This fee is not for profit, but to cover the costs associated with selling an item. Each return is evaluated individually, and we strive to minimize this fee. In many instances, we waive it entirely if the refund credit can be applied towards another item in the store.

Please note, all returned items must be in the condition in which they were shipped. If the items are returned in a different condition, we will not be able to accept them.

We highly recommend visiting us in person to experience our fine photographic tools before deciding which tool best fits your needs. Please note that our inventory is distributed among our three stores, and what you see online may be at any of these locations.

Our online process is both personal and simple.

To begin, fill out the form on our Trade // Sell page with the details of the fine photographic equipment or watches you'd like to trade in.
