15mm Lenses

The 15mm focal length offers an ultra-wide field of view, perfect for dramatic landscapes, architecture, and creative perspectives. At this width, straight lines can be exaggerated, and foreground subjects can be emphasized to create a strong sense of depth.

For Leica M photographers, 15mm lenses often require an external viewfinder or the use of Live View/Visoflex for precise framing, though many shoot "from the hip" using zone focusing due to the immense depth of field.

Key Characteristics

• Ultra-Wide: Captures a massive 110-degree angle of view (approx).
• Depth of Field: Extremely deep focus, making it easy to keep everything sharp.
• Perspective: Exaggerates distance between foreground and background.
