The Leitz 24mm f/2.8 Elmarit-M ASPH is a wide-angle prime lens for the Leica M rangefinder bayonet mount, sitting in the modern aspherical generation of M-system optics aimed at reportage, landscape and architectural work where a moderately fast wide field of view is needed. As an M-bayonet lens it is intended for Leica M film and digital bodies and is not compatible with R-mount SLR cameras.

UK saleroom data on this reference is thin: a single tracked example fetched at auction made £1,320 hammer in November 2018, which is the only data point available to gauge what the lens is worth at wholesale level. With just one record there is no meaningful range or median to quote, and as of today the price a clean copy sells for in the auction market can shift materially with condition, box/papers and which production batch is offered.
