The Schneider XENON-E 50mm f/2.2 Leica M Mount Conversion Lens is a limited-production lens based on a German-made Schneider industrial line scan lens, carefully converted into a Leica M mount rangefinder-coupled lens by SHOTENKOBO.
This lens is based on a Schneider industrial line scan lens originally designed for high-precision imaging applications. It offers high resolution, low chromatic aberration, and low distortion.
The lens has been converted into Leica M mount specification and supports rangefinder-coupled focusing on Leica M series cameras.
From its maximum aperture of f/2.2, the lens delivers clean, crisp, and detailed image rendering typical of industrial optics.
While the lens provides excellent resolution, it also produces smooth and natural background blur, giving images a pleasing sense of depth.
In addition to Leica M cameras, the lens can be used on many mirrorless camera systems with the appropriate mount adapter.
The lens can be adapted for Fujifilm GFX and Hasselblad X series cameras. Vignetting may occur depending on shooting conditions, especially at infinity focus.
The original lens design is suitable for macro photography. By using macro extension tubes, higher magnification close-up shooting is possible.
A high-quality genuine leather case specially made for this lens is included.
