Modern Optics, Classic Performance

Despite its light weight and pocketable form, the Ksana 21mm’s outstanding optical structure delivers high resolution with great suppression of unwanted chromatic aberration. This is a result of a design that includes a compact eight-element, six-group optical design, featuring 1 ASPH (Aspherical), 2 ED (Extra-low Dispersion), and 3 HRI (High Refractive Index) elements. The nine-blade diaphragm provides apertures from f/3.5 to f/22 for rounded highlights, with especially crisp 18-point starbursts at f/4.

 

Wide Angle, Wide Perspective

 The lens has a wide 21mm angle, but with a 0.5m minimum focusing distance. It offers an 80.2° horizontal field of view on full-frame cameras, with imperceptible distortion. Maintaining the classic Leica rangefinder charm, this lens ensures precision for film and digital photographers alike. A tactile reminder at 0.7m alerts you when the rangefinder uncouples, signaling a switch to EVF focusing.

 

Timeless Design, Signature Lens Body

The Ksana 21mm f/3.5 features a vintage-inspired body with a scalloped focus ring and crescent-shaped tab. Ergonomic contours align with your fingers for a comfortable grip and intuitive handling, ensuring stable, precise control even during fast focusing.
