Leica 50mm f/1.4 Summicron-M ASPH

Examples: 50/1.4 Summilux-M (NEX-7, Portraits)

These examples shot with the Leica 50mm f/1.4 Summilux-M ASPH on the 24-megapixel Sony NEX-7— see the full review of the Sony NEX-7 in DAP. The lens adapter was the Novoflex Leica M to NEX.

Leica M shooters will be well served by having a NEX-7 or similar body as a an alternative or backup camera, or even as the primary camera for Leica M glass. This trend can only continue as more and more ALLVIEW* cameras emerge onto the market in 2012 and beyond.
