==== Summary ====
The Leica Elmarit 19mm f/2.8 (version II) is a compact ultra-wide angle lens for Leica R  SLR cameras. Angle of view - 96° (vertical) and 87° (horizontal). High contrast and image refinement are not the only advantages of this versatile lens. The lens is sharp at the center, but getting softer on the corners. With the angle of view of 96°, distortions are negligible when shooting architecture. The lens features a built-in filter revolver with four filters  (ND, yellow, orange, and blue).
