The Leica Super-Elmar-M 21mm f/3.4 ASPH is considered by many Leica photographers to be one of the finest compact wide-angle lenses Leica has ever produced. It delivers exceptional sharpness, beautiful color rendering, and remarkably low distortion, all in a small and highly portable package that pairs perfectly with Leica M bodies.
Richard acquired this lens during his extensive exploration of Leica equipment and optics. Like much of his collection, it appears to have been carefully maintained and lightly used. This particular lens includes its protective case.
What makes the Super-Elmar especially appealing is its balance: incredibly high optical performance without the size and weight of Leica’s faster ultra-wide lenses. It has become a favorite among travel, street, documentary, and landscape photographers who want world-class image quality in a discreet setup.
The rendering is clean, refined, and unmistakably Leica, with excellent micro-contrast and edge-to-edge sharpness. It remains a highly respected lens among Leica enthusiasts and an outstanding choice for anyone building a serious M-system kit.

My goal is to be as transparent and straightforward as possible.
