Leica Leitz Canada Summilux-M 75mm f/1.4 VII M Mount Prime Lens

The Leica Summilux-M 75mm f/1.4 VII is a legendary lens that has earned a cult following among Leica aficionados and portrait photographers alike. Produced at the Leitz Canada factory, this version (catalog #11815) is known for its dreamy rendering, smooth bokeh, and unique “Leica glow” that transforms everyday scenes into timeless photographs.

As detailed by Thorsten Overgaard, the Summilux-M 75mm f/1.4 VII is distinguished by its large front element and fast maximum aperture, making it ideal for available-light photography, portraits, and creative depth-of-field work. The VII’s double-ring focusing design ensures precise manual focusing, while its 1-meter minimum focusing distance opens up a range of compositional possibilities.

The Summilux 75mm f/1.4 also boasts a distinct optical signature: beautifully soft transitions from sharp subject to out-of-focus areas, perfect for isolating your subject and drawing the eye. The lens features the classic black anodized finish, solid brass construction, and is compatible with all Leica M-mount bodies.

Condition: Mint

This lens is in Mint condition, showing virtually no signs of use. The glass is pristine—no haze, fungus, or scratches—and the aperture blades are clean and snappy. The focus ring is smooth and precise, and the barrel shows no brassing and only two very small wear marks. Comes with the original box (no paperwork)—an excellent find for both collectors and serious users.

A true collector’s piece and a joy to use—whether you’re shooting with film or digital M bodies. Own a piece of Leica’s legendary optical craftsmanship with this exceptional Summilux.
