Leitz Hugo 66mm T2.1

The Leitz HUGO 66 mm T2.1 lens is based on the fabled “spy lens” created by legendary Leica lens designer Walter Mandler for the US Navy during the Cold War. Built for ultra high resolution imaging and never intended for the public, it’s estimated that less than 200 were ever produced. By only slightly modifying the elegant simplicity of Mandler’s original design, this lens sits alongside its modern siblings as a great pairing with an impressive pedigree. While considered extremely sharp for its time, the images match remarkably well with the strong character of the modern day HUGO lenses.

This lens has the traditional cine orientation of focus and iris scales, expanded focus scales with a 270° rotation, and great close focus ability. Incredibly compact and lightweight. Available in Arri LPL or Leica L mounts.
