The APO-TELYT-R Module System
The APO-TELYT-R Module System covers the range of focal lengths from 280 to 800 mm,
replacing heavy individual lenses with fixed focal lengths, making it particularly attractive for
nature- and sports photographers. With a twist of the wrist, six different APO lenses of the very
highest optical quality can be created from two lens heads and three extremely compact focusing
modules. The result, uncommonly clear pictures with very high contrast and absolute detail-
and color fidelity can be achieved where atmospheric disturbances and light haze or fog would
otherwise reduce the image quality considerably. Because the smallest mechanical errors and
weaknesses in this range can clearly diminish the performance, the Leica Module System is very
sturdy and assembled with extremely tight tolerances.

All you need to do, is to join an APO-TELTYT-R
lens head and an appropriate focusing module to
obtain the desired focal length to suit a particular
photographic task. Thanks to a special bayonet and
the large locking ring, this can be done quickly
and easily. The advantage of this intelligent system:
you don’t have to carry along many large and
heavy individual telephoto lenses.
Instead, you simply combine modules as you need them.
And you always have telephoto lenses with focal lengths
from 280 to 800mm at your disposal. With a twist of the
wrist, six different APO-lenses are created from two lens
heads and three focus modules – each one with
unexcelled optical quality. Last, they feature remarkably
short near-focusing distances of 6.6´ to 12
3
⁄4´, expanding
their creative possibilities significantly.
With this single focusing mount,
the two lens heads can be
converted into a: 280mm f/2.8 or
a 400mm f/2.8 APO-TELYT-R
With this single focusing mount,

Depending on which focus module is attached, the APO-TELYT-R
280/400/560mm lens head becomes a: 280 mm f/2.8 APO-TELYT-R,
400 mm f/4 APO-TELYT-R, or 560mm f/5.6 APO-TELYT-R.
Depending on which focus module is attached, the 400/560/800mm
APO-TELYT-R lens head becomes a: 400 mm f/2.8 APO-TELYT-R,
560mm f/4 APO-TELYT-R, or an 800mm f/5.6 APO-TELYT-R.
