The DZO Thypoch Ksana 35mm f/2 ASPH Leica M Black Paint Lens is a high-quality 35mm prime lens engineered for Leica M-mount systems and full-frame cameras. Its 35mm focal length offers a natural, human-eye perspective, making it a versatile choice for street photography, portraits, landscapes, and commercial visual storytelling.

A bright f/2 maximum aperture enables strong low-light performance while producing smooth background separation and a soft, cinematic blur. The 10-blade diaphragm ensures beautifully rounded bokeh, enhancing the aesthetic quality of out-of-focus highlights.

The lens features an advanced 8-element, 5-group optical design incorporating one aspherical (ASPH) element, one extra-low dispersion (ED) element, and two high-refractive-index (HRI) elements. This configuration ensures sharp image quality, reduced chromatic aberration, and consistent optical performance across the frame.

Its signature Epoch Coating 84 gives the lens a distinctive retro character inspired by 1980s optics, producing subtle golden-purple reflections and a nostalgic film-like rendering style. Combined with the crescent-shaped focus tab, it provides smooth and precise manual focusing control for deliberate, creative shooting.

Built with a premium metal housing, the lens is both durable and lightweight at approximately 330g. The black paint finish offers a classic, understated aesthetic preferred by many professional photographers. A matching lens hood is included to reduce flare, improve contrast, and protect the front element from impact and scratches.
