Leitz Hugo LPL Feet T1.5 - 24 mm

Iconic Leica M Character in a Professional Cine Housing

The Leitz Hugo 24mm T1.5 brings the legendary soul of Leica M glass to the world of high-end cinematography. Designed to be compact, fast, and lightweight, this lens captures images with the distinct personality, rich colors, and artful flares that have defined street photography for decades. By utilizing the same optics as the Leica M series, the Hugo 24mm offers a unique character at capture that modern, clinical lenses often lack.

Precision Engineering for Modern Sets

While the glass is classic, the housing is entirely new. The Leitz Hugo series features a robust build quality designed to match existing Leitz cinematography standards. This 24mm prime features a native LPL mount and traditional cine orientation for focus and iris scales. With a significantly expanded focus throw of 270 degrees, focus pullers gain the precision required for demanding productions.

Compact Design and Versatility

Named after Hugo Wehrenfennig, the engineer behind the Leica M bayonet, these lenses honor the spirit of mobility. Weighing approximately 1.78 lbs (810g), the Hugo 24mm is ideal for gimbal work, handheld operation, and drone cinematography. Key features include:

• Enhanced Close Focus: Greatly increased close-focusing capabilities compared to traditional M-mount lenses.
• Swappable Mounts: Compatible with Leica M and Leica L mounts for maximum camera flexibility.
• Consistent Form Factor: Uniform housing across the set simplifies lens changes on set.
