What does it mean that it is the 'Non-RF' version?
The Non-RF version has no coupling with the camera's rangefinder. This means you will not be able to focus through the camera's viewfinder; you will need an external viewfinder (such as a shoe-mounted viewfinder) to frame and focus correctly. It is a popular choice among photographers who prefer using external viewfinders or who use the camera in scale focusing mode.
Is it compatible with all Leica M cameras?
This lens is designed for the Leica M mount, so it is compatible with all M-series cameras (digital and film). However, note that being Non-RF, it will not activate the rangefinder framelines in the camera, so you will need an external viewfinder for composition.
What is the minimum focusing distance?
The minimum focusing distance is 0.4 meters (40 cm). This allows you to get quite close to the subject, which is useful for close-up photography or for creating dynamic perspectives.
What does the Camera Market warranty include?
This second-hand lens has been inspected by our technicians and works correctly. It includes a warranty of 6, 12, or 24 months (depending on the option chosen) that covers any functional defects. If you have any issues, you can contact our customer service to repair or replace it.
