Best budget lens for the leica t typ 701?
For a budget lens on the Leica T (Typ 701), I'd start with a fast 35mm. It frames like about 52mm on full frame, which is close to the classic 50mm for people and low light. My picks are the Meike 35mm f/2 STM and the 7Artisans AF 35mm f/1.8, both from budget makers. If you want one lens for everything, the Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 DC DN Contemporary covers a lot of ground. For wide shots, try the Viltrox AF 16mm f/1.8.
I don't list prices, so check current ones before you buy. My advice on splitting the budget still holds: a good lens matters more than a flagship body.
