Leitz 35mm f/2 Summicron
The Leitz 35mm f/2 Summicron is a fast moderate wide-angle rangefinder lens for the Leica system, produced across multiple generations from the mid-twentieth century onward. It became the standard fast 35mm for reportage and available-light work on Leica bodies. This listing covers the model family generically, without specifying a particular version.
At recent UK auction, hammer prices for the 35mm f/2 Summicron span a wide band from around £700 to £26,000, with the bulk of saleroom results clustering between roughly £1,000 and £2,000 and a median close to £1,600. The very high outliers above £10,000 reflect strong premiums paid in the auction market for scarcer early variants and exceptional condition, so any valuation needs to be anchored to the specific version and cosmetic grade rather than to a single headline figure.

Auction: Leitz Auction 30 (Lot AI_30_34861) Title: Summicron 2/35mm black paint 'Cartier-Bresson'
Description:
Unique lens used by Henri Cartier-Bresson with his black paint IIIg camera: the black paint 8-element lens (with very clean optics) was transformed from the original M-mount lens (0.7m, red plastic dot) on special order by removing the bayonet ring. Also the focus-tab was modified by removing the infinity lock and an extended lever was built-in. The lens has the same index dots made with nail gloss as the famous 2/5cm black paint collapsible Summicron used by HCB. It comes with both caps and a confirmation of authenticity by Lars Netopil from April 2015. Estimate: EUR 18,000 - EUR 20,000 |
