Analogue photography is a conscious choice in favour of craftsmanship, a slower pace, and trust in our own ability to capture an image. It’s a choice that can be made at any time, as in our present day, the analogue world exists alongside the digital. But the results vary – in their aesthetics and in their character. With its distinctive look, our Leica MONOPAN 50 black-and-white film recalls the early days of 35 mm photography. It takes us back to 1925, when we presented the revolutionary Leica I to the world.
36 High-Resolution Shots
Leica MONOPAN 50 boasts an ultra-fine grain and super-panchromatic sensitivity. The film can be processed in all black-and-white developers. Its ultra-high resolution produces shots with extraordinary sharpness and remarkable tonal value reproduction. The low light sensitivity of ISO 50, combined with our fast M-Lenses, makes shots with a wide aperture possible even in bright lighting conditions – for that unmistakable Leica bokeh.

Anythingt that equates to a 50 or close to a 50 is acceptable.
a 45, 55 is all good.
35 with crop factor is good as well. They all show a 50mm focal length perpspective.
