With an expanded 270-degree focus rotation and significantly improved close-focus capabilities, it provides the precision required for demanding sets while maintaining a remarkably small footprint.

A Tribute to Optical Heritage
Named after Hugo Wehrenfennig, the engineer behind the iconic Leica M bayonet, the Hugo series honors seven decades of optical excellence. By utilizing a shallow flange depth, Leitz has created a fast T1.5 lens that allows cinematographers to move quickly and travel light without compromising on image quality or durability.
