LEITZ SUMMILUX-C 135MM LENS

The Leitz Summilux-C 135mm T1.4 is a pinnacle of telephoto engineering, offering an extraordinary combination of a fast aperture and surgical precision within the prestigious Summilux-C lineup. Known for its “creamy” yet sharp rendering, this lens provides a stunningly shallow depth of field that beautifully isolates subjects from their background with a natural, pleasing bokeh. Despite its complex optical design and impressive T1.4 speed, the 135mm maintains the same physical length and front diameter as the rest of the Summilux-C series, allowing for seamless lens changes without the need to reposition follow focus motors or matte boxes. It is a favorite among world-class cinematographers for high-end feature films and commercials where skin tones must appear luminous and every detail must be rendered with absolute clarity and zero breathing.
