The Leica Summicron-C lenses are premium cinema prime lenses designed for larger sensors in film, digital cinema, and television productions. These lenses, known for their exceptional quality and performance, are available in the following focal lengths:

• Leica Summicron-C 18mm T2.0
• Leica Summicron-C 25mm T2.0
• Leica Summicron-C 35mm T2.0
• Leica Summicron-C 50mm T2.0
• Leica Summicron-C 75mm T2.0
• Leica Summicron-C 135mm T2.0

All About The Magic: Creating magical and meaningful images is not just about technical specifications and charts. It takes a skilled cinematographer and a lens with the character needed to bring their vision to life.

Enlarged Sensor Coverage: The Summicron-C primes cover a 36mm image circle (36mm x 24mm), larger than the typical Super 35 (28mm). They are designed to perform excellently with large-format sensors like the ARRI Alexa Mini LF 4K 16:9 format, Sony Venice, RED Helium 8K, and RED Gemini 5K. These lenses ensure there is no performance loss in the corners or vignetting.

Aperture: With a maximum aperture of T2.0, the Summicron-C prime lenses are built for high ISO digital cameras, offering significant depth of field and performance while maintaining a compact size and weight.

Focusing: The classic linear focus scale of the Leitz Summicron-C lenses is familiar to camera assistants worldwide. With 300° of focus rotation, these lenses provide extremely accurate focus marks and smooth focus pulls without sudden snaps of sharpness.

Compact, Lightweight, and Matched: Advances in cine lens design allow the Summicron-C lenses to be smaller and more compact than other lenses with comparable performance. At only 4” (101 mm) long and weighing between 2.9 and 3.4 pounds (1.3-1.6 KG), these lenses are ideal for stabilized rigs, aerial cinematography, underwater cinematography, and stereoscopic 3D.

High Optical Performance: Modern lens design and Leica Leitz cine manufacturing processes ensure low distortion, high resolution, and excellent color rendition. The Summicron-C lenses provide a sharp image with a naturalistic bokeh. They are telecentric, reducing illumination fall-off from light hitting the sensor at an angle outside the image circle.
