A pleasure to have and enjoy
This is actually an APO lens that is not advertised by Leica. If you look into the the details and specs of its performance it is a APO lens of certain degree but just not marked as such on the barrel.
This is a personal favourite of mine and truly spectacular in every respect.
Built quality, design, performance and all.
You will not need anything other than this!
A pleasure to have and enjoy!
