Thypoch Simera 50mm f/1.4 (Leica M, Silver)

Thypoch Simera 50mm f/1.4 (Leica M, Silver)

A vintage normal-length prime suited for everyday use, the Thypoch Simera 50mm f/1.4 (Leica M, Silver) delivers a versatile full-frame optic designed for M-mount cameras. This fully manual-focus lens provides an impressive 45cm minimum focusing distance, allowing for detailed close-up shots. The aperture de-click switch located on the barrel allows for seamless transitions between smooth and clicked operation, making this lens well-suited for videography and photography alike. Featuring high refractive index multilayer coatings and high refractive index elements, light transmission up to T1.5 is possible, resulting in vibrant, color-accurate images with reduced chromatic aberrations. While the lens's fast f/1.4 aperture allows this prime to excel in low-light conditions, its 14-blade diaphragm creates round, flattering bokeh.

Optical Design

Made to correct spherical and chromatic aberrations, the Simera 50mm f/1.4's optical design features 8 elements in 6 groups, including one aspherical element, one extra-low dispersion (ED) element, and three high-refractive index (HRI) elements.

Resistance Reminder

When turned to 0.7m, you'll feel a dampening to alert you that the lens focusing distance is about to exceed the limit of the camera body, reminding you to switch to the EVF for shorter focusing ranges.
