Near MINT Canon 50mm f/1.4 Lens L39 LTM Leica Screw Mount lens Rangefinder JAPAN

The lens uses a 6-element, 4-group optical formula based on the Zeiss Planar design principle. Introduced in 1957, it predates Leica's own 50mm f/1.4 Summilux by two years — a fact that earned it the enduring nickname "Japanese Summilux" among rangefinder shooters. Built for the 39mm Leica screw mount (LTM/M39), this lens couples natively with Canon's own rangefinder bodies and mounts directly to Leica screw-mount cameras of the era. A bright f/1.4 maximum aperture was uncommon for Japanese rangefinder lenses of its time, giving photographers strong low-light capability alongside the era's characteristic single-coated rendering and gentler contrast.
