ELMARIT-R 24 mm f/2.8
|
This wide-angle lens uses a floating element to achieve uniformly high imaging performance across the entire focusing range from 30 cm (12 in) to infinity. Artificial vignetting, which is already extremely low for this focal length, is easy to eliminate by slightly stopping down the aperture. At first glance, photographs taken with the LEICA ELMARIT-M 24 mm f/2.8 do not look like superwide- angle pictures, however they are very impressive because of their unusual perspective. In the close-up range, this lens makes unusual images possible because it sets the main subject off in an interesting manner in relation to its surroundings. |
