The Leica Summilux-SL 50mm f1.4 ASPH for the SL System Finally Makes a Splash

Today, Leica announced their new Summilux-SL 50 mm f/1.4 ASPH lens for the Leica SL camera system. It's most likely a very exciting time for lots of photographers who own the absurdly expensive system due to the fact that Leica's 50mm f1.4 Summilux lenses are typically very good. In fact, this is the SL's first prime lens. With 11 elements in 9 groups and two aspherical elements, you should also note the lens' E82 filter mount--which only the 21mm f1.4 for the M system has.
