The Leica DG Summilux 9mm (H-X09) is an unparalleled lens that features an exceptionally short focusing distance of 0.095m (9.5cm) with an outstanding magnification ratio of 0.25x (35mm camera equivalent: 0.5x). The combination of these exceptional capabilities makes it possible to emphasize a subject’s presence in the sweeping background. It also boasts high descriptive performance and smooth, beautiful bokeh in both stills and video, clearing the stringent LEICA standards.
The LEICA DG SUMMILUX 9mm F1.7 is comprised of twelve lens elements in nine groups including two aspherical lenses, two ED (Extra-Low Dispersion) lenses and one UHR (Ultra High Refractive Index) lens to effectively suppress both axial chromatic aberration and chromatic aberration of magnification. Astigmatism is also corrected with these aspherical lenses, achieving high resolving performance. Furthermore, a UHR (Ultra-High Refractive Index) lens achieves uniform image quality from the centre to edges of the image while contributing to downsizing of the lens unit. The filter diameter is 55 mm, with a 7-blade circular aperture diaphragm.
The LEICA DG SUMMILUX 9mm F1.7 also excels in video recording performance with a mechanism that suppresses focus breathing, which was a fatal problem of all interchangeable lenses designed for still image photography. Together with a micro-step aperture control for smooth exposure change, professional quality video can be recorded.
With its compact size and approximately 130g light weight, the LEICA DG SUMMILUX 9mm F1.7 encompasses the stunning mobility of the Micro Four Thirds system. The rugged dust/splash-resistant*2 design withstands use under harsh conditions even at minus 10 degrees Celsius for ultimate reliability.
* Dust and Splash Resistant does not guarantee that damage will not occur if this lens is subjected to direct contact with dust and water.
