- Leica 50mm f2 Dual Range Summicron Lens w/Goggles (SOMNI) 11918 Lens.
- Includes a Leitz UVa filter, lens caps, and the case for the goggles.
- I personally love the dreamy effect of this lens.
- The focus is smooth and well damped.
- The diaphragm is clean and clicks as it should.
- The haze has been cleaned out, leaving just slight traces of the cleaning that will not affect the performance of the lens in any way.
