About this unit

The Leica 180mm f/3.5 APO-Tele-Elmar-S CS is a medium format telephoto lens designed for the Leica S system. Launched in 2009, this lens stands out for its robust construction and APO optics, which correct chromatic aberrations to deliver exceptional image quality. The 'CS' version incorporates an integrated leaf shutter, allowing flash synchronization at shutter speeds up to 1/500 second, a significant advantage for studio and outdoor photography with controlled lighting.

Weighing 1300 grams, this lens is built for demanding professional use. Its focus ring offers balanced resistance, allowing precise manual adjustment and manual override of autofocus at any time. The autofocus, controlled by a microprocessor designed by Leica, is fast and accurate. This second-hand lens has been inspected and comes with a Camera Market warranty, giving you peace of mind with your purchase.
