Opt for a LEICA DG lens and get the ultimate in optical quality and performance. They naturally meet the strict quality standards set by Leica Camera AG. Thanks to the sophisticated design of these lenses, you will enjoy brilliant clarity all the way to the edges of your photos.

Branching into wider fields of expression
This wide zoom lens fuses LEICA's image rendering capabilities and nimble mobility. From ultra-wide-angle 16mm landscapes to standard 36mm snapshots (35mm camera equivalent), the incredible resolution of this LEICA DG lens renders everything clearly from corner to corner. It also accommodates a 67mm filter for greater creativity in both photos and videos. Designed for reliable use even under poor weather conditions, this agile, high-quality lens is ideal for shooting in the field.
Nano Surface Coating – clarity from all angles
Put an end to unwanted ghosting and flaring – the Nano Surface Coating has been applied to lenses within the system. This special, ultra-thin coating was developed originally by Panasonic to reduce bothersome reflections across the entire light spectrum. The result: crystal-clear pictures even if you’re photographing a light source in the dark.
Dust, splash and freeze-resistant design
LEICA DG VARIO-ELMARIT 8-18mm / F2.8-4.0 ASPH. is designed to keep shooting in the toughest conditions thanks to its dust- and splash-resistant construction and allows you to shoot in temperatures as low as -10 °C.
･Dust and Splash Resistant does not guarantee that damage will not occur if this lens is subjected to direct contact with dust and water.
Ideal for video recording
The lens offers fast, accurate autofocus and smooth aperture changes, critical for the modern content creator, allowing you to record beautiful 4K video and stills without disturbing your subject.
H-E08018 lens construction
The optimized configuration has 15 elements in 10 groups, including 1 ASPH/ED, 3 ASPH, 2 ED and 1 UHR lenses to minimize aberrations and ensure superb resolution.
