After covering all the classic brands known to the wider public, I recently decided to start listing more niche systems too. I have already talked about Leica with my page listing all the lenses for the L-mount, since Leica, Panasonic and Sigma formed an alliance in 2018 to produce lenses for this mount.
On this page, I’ll be looking at a mount that is almost as old as the hills: the Leica M mount, introduced by Leica in 1954 with the Leica M3 body. The “M” refers to the German word “Messsucher“, which translates as “Rangefinder” in English. Current M-mount cameras use what is known as a rangefinder system. This is a very specific type of photography, based on manual focus. Some people love it, others don’t!

Here is a quick overview of Leica cameras using this M mount. I have only listed the most recent models, although you will of course still find older cameras using this long-standing mount.
The Leica M10 range
We have just published a new page listing all Leica M-mount cameras (full frame). A good way to learn more!
The tables below can be sorted simply by clicking on the column you want to sort by, such as filter size, focal length, and so on. Some lenses may be missing, so please let me know if that is the case.
Lenses for Leica M mount
Below, you will find all the brands offering lenses for Leica M mount, including Leica of course, but also third-party brands producing lenses for this system. Note that all the lenses in the tables are manual focus.
Leica lenses for the M mount
In the table below, you will find the list of all recent Leica lenses for the Leica M mount. I know that some older lenses are missing.
For information, Leica uses several classic terms according to the maximum aperture of the lens. In general, you will find:
- Noctilux: maximum aperture at f/1
- Summilux: maximum aperture at f/1.4
- Summicron: maximum aperture at f/2
- Elmarit: maximum aperture at f/2.8
- Elmar: maximum aperture at f/3.5 (but also used for larger apertures)
I decided to split all Leica M lenses into several groups:

TTArtisan lenses for Leica M mount
TTArtisan offers a set of lenses for the Leica M mount.
