The aspherical 35mm Summicron-M, designed by Peter Karbe and in production since 1997, uses seven elements in five groups with aspheric surfaces, focuses to 0.7 metres and takes E39 filters. This is the titanium-finish version, order number 11609; Leica allocated a batch of 1,000 titanium lenses in 2000, a very small share of aspherical Summicron output. Optically it matches the black and chrome lenses, and it is the finish, made to pair with titanium bodies, that these are bought for.
