Mixing a normal field of view with an exceptionally fast maximum aperture, the silver 50mm f/1.1 from 7artisans Photoelectric is a versatile prime designed for M-mount rangefinder cameras. Distinguished by its bright f/1.1 design, this lens excels in low-light conditions and also affords extensive control over depth of field for isolating subjects and using selective focus techniques. A rounded 12-blade diaphragm also contributes to shallow depth of field work by producing a smooth, rounded bokeh quality.

The lens features a Sonnar-type optical design with 7 elements in 6 groups, and individual elements feature a multi-layer coating to help reduce reflections and ghosting for greater contrast and color accuracy. Additionally, the lens has an all-manual design, and focusing operation is benefitted by engraved depth of field and focusing scales.

Normal-length 50mm prime designed for full-frame and 35mm Leica M-mount rangefinder cameras.

Notably fast f/1.1 maximum aperture affords extensive control over depth of field and also benefits working in low-light conditions.

Sonnar-type optical design delivers a high degree of sharpness throughout the aperture range.

Individual elements feature a multi-layer coating to suppress flare and ghosting for greater contrast and color fidelity when working in strong lighting conditions.

Manual focus design permits working with subjects as close as 2.3' away.

Engraved focus distance and depth of field scales benefit working with pre-focus and hyperfocal focusing techniques.

Rounded 12-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality.
