Is the leica noctilux m 50mm f 0 95 asph worth buying used?

I think it's worth buying used if you know what you want from it. The Noctilux-M 50mm is the fastest M lens, but it's heavy, manual focus only, and focus is very thin wide open. It suits someone who wants that shallow, dreamy look and is happy to practise with it. If you want an easy all-rounder, look elsewhere.

Used is the sensible way to buy a lens this expensive. Buying used explains why an older or pre-owned piece of gear can give you most of the value for much less.

It's a full frame lens for Leica M bodies, and it fits every M camera listed on its page. Check which one you own or plan to buy first. The Leica M11 and Leica M10 are both on that list.
