Leica 90mm f2.8 Tele-Elmarit-M (11800) - Lens

Manual focus telephoto lens made for M-mount rangefinder cameras introduced by Leica in 1973. This is an improved version of the earlier 90mm f2.8 Tele-Elmarit from 1964. The optical formula changed from a 5 to a 4-element design. The overall design of the lens had also changed, now with a slimmer profile and a fine knurled focusing ring. The lens was introduced at the same time as the 135mm focal length was discontinued, and was therefore developed with a 1.5x extender in mind to provide a compact 135mm lens. It is sometimes referred to as the "Thin" Tele-Elmarit. Some models do not have the "M" written on the name ring. NOTE: It uses the same code as the earlier version. Metal body available in black (11800).
