Summilux 1.4/35mm black

Rare black version with chrome front rim in fine condition, only the focusing handle and infinity lock button (black-painted) with some wear (crisp aperture stops, smooth focusing, clean lenses, keeper). A very rare and special, sought-after lens is the 35 mm Summilux f/1.4 lens in black finish with chrome front rim, catalogued as the 11869 model for M2. Designed by Dr. W. Mandler, the seven-element lens was only produced in Canada. There are no records showing how many lenses were made in black finish with chrome rim, but the numbers were very low. It accepted the special lens hood OLLUX.
