Leitz HUGO FF T1.5

Equipment description

Leitz HUGO lenses were designed to be compact, fast, and lightweight, while allowing for extremely close focus, all while preserving the full character of Leica M glass, which gives images a distinctive personality straight out of the camera.
The initial set includes 7 full-frame lenses ranging from 18mm to 90mm, all with a fast T1.5 aperture, with a 135mm version coming soon.

Building on the popularity of the Leitz M 0.8 series, Leitz HUGO lenses use the same Leica M optics but feature a completely new housing design and build quality aligned with existing Leitz cinema lenses.
They are equipped with an LPL mount and a traditional cinema-style layout of focus and iris rings, extended focus scales with a 270° rotation, and significantly improved close-focus capabilities.
At the same time, they remain extremely compact and lightweight — starting at just 1.78 lbs / 0.81 kg, with lengths ranging from 2.7 to 4.4 inches (68–112 mm).

Basic set has 21,24,28,35,50,75,90.
Extra lenses are 18, 40 and 135.
