    Wide-angle reimagined – f/1.4 for reportage, street and night

    21 mm stands for expanse, space and context. With a maximum aperture of f/1.4, this Nokton significantly extends the classic application range: reportage in low light, urban night photography, interiors or atmospheric street scenes can be captured without a tripod and with controlled ISO. The angle of view remains wide, while the visual impact gains considerably in depth and atmosphere.

    Subject separation in wide-angle – creative image composition with depth

    f/1.4 at 21 mm opens up creative possibilities that go far beyond classic ultra-wide-angle lenses. Foregrounds can be deliberately emphasized, subjects clearly separated from the background, yet the spatial impression remains intact. The 12 aperture blades ensure a smooth, rounded blur progression and support a modern, high-quality look.

    Sophisticated optics for high performance at wide aperture

    The aspherical optical construction is designed to deliver convincing imaging performance even at wide aperture. In practice, this translates to excellent sharpness, stable contrast and controlled aberrations across the entire image field. The lens is therefore suitable not only for available light, but also for architecture, city and landscape photography when maximum light reserves are required.

    Practical handling for Leica M – close focusing and flexible working

    The lens focuses down to 0.5 m, enabling strong perspectives with emphasized foreground. For working with the rangefinder viewfinder: the rangefinder coupling operates down to 0.7 m; below that, use Live View for precise control in the close-focus range. Despite the high maximum aperture, the lens remains well-balanced on the Leica M and is also suitable for extended use in everyday situations and travel.
