Leica Elmarit-M 90 mm f/2.8Leica Macro Elmarit-R 60 mm f/2.8
The name Elmarit is used by
Leica to designate camera
lenses that have a maximum
aperture of f/2.8.
History
The Elmarit is a derivation of the
Elmar. Confusingly not all f/2.8 lenses are Elmarits. The 50 mm f/2.8 collapsible, manufactured until 2007, was designated an Elmar rather than an Elmarit.[1]
Description
The Elmarit are popular lenses for extreme focal lengths: 21 mm, 24 mm, 28 mm and 90 mm. The Elmarit has also come in 135mm super-telephoto.[2]
Market positions
The Elmarit are behind the
Summicron and the
Summarit lenses. Only the Elmar and most Summaron lenses have a smaller
f-number.
