The Leica Elmarit-R 28mm F/2.8 debuted at Photokina in 1970, providing Leica R mount landscape, architectural, reporting, and advertising photographers with an ideal lens for their work. It was produced for a respectable twenty-two years, from 1970 to 1992, and was offered in two-cam, three-cam, and R-only configurations throughout the decades. Serial numbers beginning with the number “2” were made during the 1970s, while serials beginning with “3” were made in the 1980s and ’90s. And this one is a prototype copy which engraved "0001443" on the front rim.
