Cinematic by Design

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 15mm to 135mm, 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.

Small but Mighty

Advances in cine lens design allowed the SUMMICRON-C lenses to be smaller and more compact than other lenses with comparable performance. With all but the extreme focal lengths only 4” (101mm) long and weighing between 2.9 and 3.4 pounds (1.3-1.6kg), these lenses are perfect for small-build handheld shooting, Steadicam, stabilized rigs, aerial cinematography, and underwater work. Matched focus and iris ring locations as well as uniform 95mm front diameters mean lens changes and rig rebalancing are quick and easy.

The Set

The SUMMICRON-C cine lenses are comprised of 11 focal lengths from 15mm to 135mm.

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. Only 4" (101mm) long and weighing between 2.9 and 3.4 pounds (1.3-1.6 kg), these lenses are perfect for stabilized rigs, aerial cinematography, underwater cinematography, and stereoscopic 3D.

Enlarged "Super 35"

Digital camera sensors are getting physically larger and the SUMMICRON-C lenses are ready to perform. Each lens offers an image circle wide than 35mm in diameter, big enough to easily cover sensors from RED Helium 8K S34 and GEMINI 5K S35, Sony and Arri Alexa Super 35 16:9 mode formats without performance loss in the corners or vignetting.

Aperture

The T2.0 SUMMICRON-C prime lenses are built with high ASA/ISO digital cameras in mind, offering plenty of depth of field and performance while maintaing a compact size.

Focusing

The biggest complaing about 35mm cinema lenses has always been their large size intended to accomodate a focus ring with more witness marks. The SUMMICRON-C lenses feature a patented focusing mechanism that eschews the logarithmic focusing of teh past by expanding the focus scale in the most critical range.
