| Features:
| • | Aspherical Lenses: Two large-diameter aspherical lenses help the lens meet Leica's extremely high optical performance standards. They help capture images that are clear from corner to corner across the entire zoom range, with minimal distortion. | | • | Multi-Coated: Multi-coated lens elements reduce ghosting and flare to an absolute minimum, enabling the lens to deliver an optical performance that meets Leica's lofty standards. | | • | Aperture Ring: The included aperture ring, in addition to the zoom and focus rings, provides users with the kind of easy, pleasant, intuitive operation offered by familiar film cameras. | | • | Circular Aperture: 7-blade circular aperture diaphragm produces brilliant out-of-focus characteristics. | | • | Four Thirds Standard Lens Mount: Use of the Four Thirds Standard means that this lens can also be used with other manufacturers that have adopted this digital camera standard. |

Awesome lens, but.... December 18, 2007
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
everything about this lens is awesome. if you are thinking about it for your kit, it is clean, crisp, and well made. however, don't buy the lens on its own, it's cheaper to buy it as part of the DMC-L1 bundle!! i don't understand the pricing of this lens as a standalone. right now on amazon the amazing DMC-L1 (which is comparable to the Leica Digilux 3) is available for around 800 bones and comes with this exact lens. i know!!
Leica 14 -50 My Opinion August 23, 2007
I just took the Leica 14-50 out on a two day photo shoot in New Mexico. I use the lens on my Olympus e-410. I was totally impressed with the corner to corner sharpness. The image stabilization works well. Is this lens worth the money? The answer is yes if you want the best!
