LEICA SUMMARIT-M 75 mm f/2.5
1
The LEICA SUMMARIT-M 1:2.5/75 mm is a new "short telephoto" lens that is significantly smaller and lighter than Summicron
lenses with the same focal length, but still offers the image quality that is the hallmark of Leica M lenses. Combined with the 35
mm Summarit-M, it makes up an ideal shooting outfit with a useful lens speed that opens up fascinating composition options for
Leica M photographers. The new 75 mm Summarit-M replaces the portrait focal lengths of 90 -100 mm for digital use. Its excep-
tionally compact design and performance bring a new level of flexibility to rangefinder photography.

The MTF is indicated both at full aperture and at
f/5.6 at long taking distances (infinity). Shown
is the contrast in percentage for 5, 10, 20 and
40 lp/mm accross the height of the 35 mm film
format, for tangential (dotted line) and sagittal
(solid line) structures, in white light. The 5 and
10 lp/mm will give an indication regarding the
contrast ratio for large object structures.The
20 and 40 lp/mm records the resolution of finer
and finest object structures.

Vignetting
Distortion is the deviation of the real image height
(in the picture) from the ideal image height. The
relative distortion is the percentage deviation.
The ideal image height results from the object
height and the magnification. The image height of
21.6mm is the radial distance between the edge and
the middle of the image field for the format 24mm x
36mm. The graph of the effective distortion illustra-
tes the appearance of straight horizontal and verti-
cal lines in the picture.

Vignetting is a continous decrease of the illumina-
tion to the edges of the image field. The graph
shows the percentage loss of illumination over the
image height. 100% means no vignetting.
