Thypoch Simera 75mm f/1.4 Leica M – Black

Thypoch Simera 75mm f/1.4 is a fast manual-focus full-frame lens for Leica M, designed for portraits, detail, street photography and available-light work. It combines high sharpness, effective chromatic-aberration control and accurate colour rendering with shallow depth of field and smooth out-of-focus transitions. It focuses down to 0.6m, uses a 16-blade iris and offers clicked or declicked aperture operation.

75MM F/1.4 FOR LEICA M · BLACK

This compact manual lens combines modern optical correction with gentle, dimensional rendering. It is made for portraits, detail, street photography and situations where f/1.4 should separate the subject from the background without sacrificing definition.

16 BLADES AND SMOOTH BOKEH

The rounded 16-blade iris produces soft highlights with limited onion-ring structure. A smooth transition from focus to defocus helps retain dimensionality and natural subject separation.

9 ELEMENTS IN 8 GROUPS

The optical design, shared with the Simera-C 75mm T1.5 cine lens, uses one aspherical element, two high-refractive-index elements and two low-dispersion elements. It is engineered for high resolution, controlled chromatic aberration and clean colour across the image.

RENDERING FOR PORTRAIT AND DETAIL

The 75mm focal length offers a natural portrait perspective while providing useful working distance. The manufacturer emphasises smooth focus transitions and dimensional rendering that preserves detail without a harsh, overly technical look.

MANUAL LEICA M WORKFLOW

Close focus to 0.6m expands detail work. As the focus passes the 0.7m point, the common rangefinder-coupling limit, the mechanism provides tactile feedback. Depth-of-field marks aid zone focusing; adapters also allow use on selected mirrorless systems.

The manufacturer landing page describes expanded coverage and potential use with some sensors larger than full frame. The exact table below follows the current manual, which specifies a 43.2mm full-frame image circle; compatibility with a larger format must therefore be verified for the specific camera or adapter.
