Leica Summilux 50mm 11715 vs 11892 (Lux ASPH V1)

p.1 #1 · Leica Summilux 50mm 11715 vs 11892 (Lux ASPH V1)

Hi folks,

Looking for some intel on the Leica Summilux 50mm 11715. https://classicconnection.com/product/leica-summilux-m-50mm-f-1-4-asph-lens-black-chrome-edition-cat-11715-new-usa-in-stock-free-shipping-usa/

I've done a bit of searching online and it appears it is exact same lenses as the v1 ASPH Lux - one aspherical, and one floating element. Just the different external design with narrower body, 43mm thread (vs 46mm), no built in hood and brass.

Is that the right TLDR?

There's a good thread over here, but can't find much detail about that special edition lens.

Yes, I currently have a Black Chrome edition 50 Lux ASPH, and it's the same optics as the normal V1 ASPH.
