Capture the moment : LEICA C1 Its styling already suggests
its origin in an elegant manner. The timelessly beautiful design is inten-
tionally reminiscent of the legendary Leica M cameras and their clear,
modular configuration. And the interior values that the robust aluminum
body protects are all the more indicative of a genuine Leica. Thanks to
its superb optics, the LEICA C1 enables you to capture brilliant shots
of all those fleeting moments that deserve to be preserved. Telephoto
shots in particular are no problem, because the 105 mm focal length
on the C1 is the longest of any Leica compact camera. The zoom lens
was computed especially for this camera and it incorporates complex
aspherical glass lens elements that yield extraordinary imaging perform-
ance in a compact design.
The 38–105mm f/4.0–10.5 LEICA VARIO-ELMAR ASPH. lens is remarkable for its outstanding sharpness, contrast and color
rendition over its entire range of focal lengths. Highly specialized technology made the use of aspherical lens surfaces possible :
Their manufacture is very complex and they have to be fabricated with extreme precision. This extraordinary effort is amply
rewarded, however, by the very high image quality rendered by lenses like this one. The configuration of 7 lens elements in
7 groups is shown in the accompanying diagram.
