Zeiss's fast M-mount 50mm — Sonnar f/1.5 for Leica rangefinders with T* coating.

The Zeiss C Sonnar T* 50mm f/1.5 ZM is a fast standard prime in Leica M bayonet mount (ZM designation), using the C Sonnar optical design — a derivative of the classic Zeiss Contax Sonnar formula known for its smooth rendering. T* anti-reflection coating. Leica M mount.

f/1.5 maximum aperture. 50mm focal length. C Sonnar optical design. T* anti-reflection coating. Manual focus with rangefinder coupling. At approximately 240g. 46mm filter thread. Leica M mount.

The C Sonnar design differs optically from the symmetrical Planar approach, producing rendering with a characteristic rendering quality — smooth out-of-focus transition and distinctive 'swirl' in some focus conditions. The ZM designation confirms Zeiss M-mount, mechanically compatible with all Leica M-bayonet bodies. T* coating suppresses flare and improves contrast.

On the used market the Zeiss C Sonnar T* 50mm f/1.5 ZM is a distinctive manual-focus standard prime for Leica M-mount cameras. Condition checks: rangefinder coupling, 46mm front element and T* coating for marks, focus ring smoothness, aperture blade condition. ZM = Zeiss M-mount, Leica M bayonet compatible.
