Leica APO-Summicron-R 90mm ƒ/2 Photography Lens with R-Mount
Overview
The Leica APO-Summicron-R 90mm ƒ/2 Photography Lens with R-Mount is a telephoto prime introduced in the 2000s. A telephoto field of view compresses distance and separates a subject from its background, the range portrait and sports photographers work in. The ƒ/2 maximum aperture separates a subject from its background and holds shutter speed up as the light falls, closing down to ƒ/16. Out-of-focus areas fall away smoothly rather than breaking up into hard edges. Its multi-coated elements suppress internal reflection better than the single-coated glass of the same period. The Leica APO-Summicron-R 90mm ƒ/2 is a full-frame lens native to the R-Mount system.
