The build, the quality, the solidness of their products is just on a whole different level. Leica lenses are expensive but I’m a firm believer that you do get what you pay for when it comes to these fine optics because out of all the things I’ve ever reviewed and used, nothing feels like a Leica lens to me. Leica APO-Summicron-SL 90mm f2 ASPH Lens Build Quality: So, I hope all of you enjoy this review but be prepared: this is the longest lens review I’ve ever written by far.
Well, after all these months, I finally used the 90mm enough where I feel like I can tell you what I truly think of this lens, and whether or not it really is as life changing as the marketing suggests or all the stuff being said about it is totally hype. The high asking prices and Leica’s legacy demands it but being that this 90mm is an SL lens, it’s supposed to be next level stuff all these SL lenses are supposed to be about Leica pushing their limits in other words, something like this 90mm is supposed to be a new reference. Since this is a Leica lens, it’s pretty much a given that there’s a certain level of quality that it has to achieve (I don’t think I’ve ever encountered a bad one). Whether you like my writing style or not is a different story haha :). Being that this is a portrait lens, I worked with different models to try to give all of you the most in-depth review that I’ve written so far. I tested this lens as extensively as I could, and I used it for my own work. Thanks to the Leica Boutique at Bergen County Camera, I received one of Leica’s first 90mm Summicron-SL lenses, so I’ve had the pleasure of using, and testing it extensively for the past six months (bought in February 2018), and I don’t just mean shooting my pets or friends and family. Those I plan to review in great detail very soon but right now, I want to talk about the APO-Summicron-SL 90mm f/2 ASPH. It’s a true next level reference lens, and one of the best parts is, it’s also autofocus, which means consistently razor sharp results at f1.4. The first SL prime that was released was the 50mm Summilux-SL ASPH, and all I can say is it’s the best 50mm that I’ve ever had the pleasure of using. I’ve owned the 24-90mm Vario-Elmarit ASPH for as long as I’ve owned the SL, and I can tell you that it is easily as good as Leica M prime lenses, if not even better than some. Both zooms have been absolutely phenomenal. Leica APO-Summicron-SL 90mm f2 ASPH Lens Review:įor the first two and a half years that the Leica SL has been out, there were only two zooms and one prime available.
