    Chapt er 7 Leica R-Lenses 1 __Introduction The zoomlens as a species of lens design has had a strange evolution. The first design seems to be the V ario-Glauk ar 1:2.8/25-80 mm for 1 6 mm cine cameras, created by Siemens around 1 936. Especially in movies, the idea of a smoothly changing rat e of magnification is ver y valuable as it can dispense o ...

    Chapt er 7 Leica R-Lenses 2 __Zoomrange The choice of focal lengths is v er y practical. Many years ago Canon has analysed thousands of phot ographs and concluded that the most often used aper tures and speeds are 1:8 and 1/1 25 and that the most used focal lengths were within the 28 mm and 90 mm rang e. If we believe these studies, the new Leica l ...

    selected because the surface reacts quite well to the black anodizing process (see image 1) . The result of all this effor t is a lens with a very smooth movement of the f ocusing ring and focal length selection. With quite sensitive fingers one can feel some ins tances of friction when you go from 90 mm to 28 mm, so perfection is alway s relative. ...

There is no trace of astigmatism and a slight field cur vature. Some colour fringing is visible at ver y high magnifications. Distortion is visible with -3% (bar rel distortion) and so is vignetting at 2.5 stops ...
