DZOFILM Thypoch Ksana 21mm f/3.5 Leica M Silver camera lens

SKU CH-8QF1-HT6D9

Full-frame 21 mm f/3.5 manual-focus lens for Leica M with 9-blade iris, EC73 coating for amber flares, and 19.7 in close focus

  • Full-frame 21 mm wide-angle view for expansive scenes
  • Fast f/3.5 aperture enables low-light and shallow-depth shooting
  • Epoch 73 coating adds warm amber flares for cinematic character
  • 9-blade iris creates clean rounded bokeh and sharp sunstars
  • Manual focus with 19.7 in close distance for precise control

Wide-Angle Prime for Leica M

The DZOFILM Thypoch Ksana 21mm f/3.5 is a full-frame manual-focus lens built for Leica M mount rangefinder cameras. It offers a 90.6° diagonal angle of view suited to landscape, street and architectural photography. Its optical design uses eight elements in six groups including extra-low-dispersion, high-refractive-index and aspherical glass. The lens is new and supplied with a hood.

Suited to Creative Wide Work.

Photographers who want a distinctive vintage flare character and precise manual control will appreciate the EC73 coating and scalloped focusing ring. The 9-blade iris produces clean rounded bokeh and striking sunstars from f/4 onward. Buyers who require autofocus, electronic aperture control or a wider maximum aperture than f/3.5 should look at alternative lenses. Close focus reaches 0.5 m for near-subject detail.

Compact Metal Build Frees Bag Space.

The ultra-lightweight metal body adds minimal bulk to a rangefinder kit and leaves room for additional primes or accessories. Manual focusing and aperture rings demand user engagement but give direct tactile control over depth of field. The 19.7-inch minimum focus distance allows tight compositions without extra extension tubes. No electronic contacts mean exposure metering depends on the camera body’s capabilities.

Questions about this item

Does this Leica M-mount lens require a specific adapter to work on my camera?

No adapter is needed; the lens mounts directly on any Leica M-mount rangefinder body.

Will the 90.6° angle of view change if I use this lens on a Leica M8?

The M8 applies a crop factor, so the field of view becomes narrower than the full-frame 90.6° diagonal angle.

How can I confirm the EC73 coating is producing the intended amber flares?

Point the lens at a bright light source; the flare should render warm amber rather than neutral or green tones.
