Introducing the Thypoch Simera 28mm f/1.4 Lens: A New Addition to the Leica M Lineup

Are you a photography enthusiast looking for a new lens to add to your collection? If so, you’ll be excited to hear about the latest release from Thypoch – the Simera 28mm f/1.4. Following the success of their first lens, Thypoch has started shipping this highly anticipated second lens, much to the delight of photographers everywhere.

The 28mm focal length is a favorite among street photographers, offering a wide angle of view to capture more of the scene. It is also a popular choice among Leica users, as it is the focal length of choice for the Leica Q2 and Q3 cameras. The Simera 28mm f/1.4 boasts features comparable to the best Leica M lenses, but at a more affordable price point, making it a popular choice among the photography community.

One standout feature of this lens is the f/1.4 aperture, which allows for beautiful bokeh and background blur. The 14-blade aperture and 11 elements ensure smooth and creamy bokeh, while the “dual aperture switching modes” make it easy to switch between clicked and de-clicked adjustments, perfect for videographers.

In terms of design, the Thypoch 28mm f/1.4 Asph is a perfect blend of vintage aesthetics with a modern twist, featuring the iconic red dots that are not just for looks – they serve as depth of field scales for quick and accurate focusing. The lightweight and compact lens body is made up of high-quality elements that combat aberrations, ensuring sharp and accurate images from edge to edge.

Overall, the Thypoch Simera 28mm f/1.4 Asph is shaping up to be a fantastic alternative to the native Leica Summilux-M 28mm f/1.4 Asph, at a much more budget-friendly price. If you’re in the market for a new lens for your Leica camera, be sure to check out the Thypoch Simera 28mm f/1.4.
