=====Leica Summicron-R Ver II 35mm f/2 ===== {{ :lens:35mmf2summicron-rii.png?250|}} ==== Summary ==== The Leica Summicron-R 35mm f/2(II) is a fast wide-angle prime lens for 35 mm SLR Leica R cameras. The lens is remarkable for minimum vignetting, almost full absence of distortion, and excellent anti-glare protection. Thanks to a larger than standard diagonal angle of view (64°), it is perfectly suitable for found photography. The lens is compact, lightweight, and convenient. This is the 2nd version of the Leica Summicron 35mm f/2 (Series 7). ==== Tech Specs ==== | Manufacturer |Leica| | Series |R| | Model |Summicron Ver II| | Focal Length |35mm| | Max Aperture |f/2| | Min Aperture |f/16| | Format |-| | Image Circle |-| | Minimum Focus |0.3m / 11.8 in.| | Focus Rotation |-| | Iris Blades |6| | Optical Design |6/6| | Squeeze |none| | Front Diameter |63mm (lens hood)| | Filter Thread |E55| | Focus/Zoom Rod |none| | Native Mount |R| | Data Protocol |none| | Length |54mm| | Weight |430g| | Body Telescope |yes| | Body Material |aluminum| | Focus Drive |Manual| | Iris Drive |Manual| | Zoom Drive |none| ==== History ==== Country of Origin: - \\ Release Date: 1977-2009 \\ Launch Price: - \\ Design Revisions:\\ ==== Service ==== Service Manual: [[staff:servicedb:Leica-R35mmf2V2|Disassembly/Re-assembly]] \\ Series Filter Thread Guide: [[staff:servicedb:FilterThreads|Series Filter Threads Explained]]\\ \\ Full CLA: **4-5 hrs.**\\ The rear tab can interfere with a Metabones adapter on the 35mm f/2 Ver II.\\ re-collimate: **1 hr**\\ remove FER, front housing, loosen lock ring inside focus scale to shift timing. use glue to secure lock rings.\\ T+S focus scale: **1 hr**\\ Remove front ring and optics to access internal screw holding scale.
