LEITZ SUMMICRON-C
Coming to market right before cinema’s exploration of full frame digital sensors began, the Leitz SUMMICRON-C lenses are the last of the modern spherical lenses designed for the Super 35 format, and as such hold many advantages over older lenses intended for the same format. The biggest advantage being that their “Super 35+” image circle, which makes them not just usable on larger sensors at certain formats, but the characteristics and artifacts outside the expected performance range make the images truly unique and interesting.
Comprising 11 focal lengths from 15 mm to 135 mm, the SUMMICRON-C series was designed with the cinematographer in mind. They offer authentic color rendition, natural focus transitions and fall off, and a creamy sharpness that captures everything from actresses to architecture with a humane and true representation. Skin tones remain soft and smooth while hard edges and fine details retain their contrast, making these one of the most versatile and requested sets of cine lenses available.
