Leitz Leica SOOFM – Close-Focus Attachment for Summitar and Summicron 50mm Lenses

The Leitz SOOFM is a close-focusing attachment made for use with Leica M39 screw mount lenses, particularly the Summitar 50mm f/2 and early Summicron 50mm f/2 lenses. It allows these lenses to focus closer than their normal minimum distance, typically down to about 0.5 meters, greatly expanding the creative possibilities for portraits, still life, and macro-style work.
