Description
The Leitz ELSIE Prime Lenses are brought to you with a range of 13 full frame focal lengths, from 15mm to 150mm. The shallower flange depth of the LPL standard made room for more design flexibility and higher performance without sacrificing mechanical or optical integrity. These lenses hybridize performance, size, and design to introduce a lens that offers great performance in a small, simple mechanical package. The design of the Leitz ELSIE Prime Lenses caters to a diverse range of production needs with their consistent size and speed.
Each Leitz ELSIE Prime Lens has a T Stop of T2.1. They have a new aperture design as well that creates a bokeh comparable to the M lenses. In addition to this, the noticeable but gradual falloff incorporated into the corners creates a dimensional pop that draws your audience’s eye to the center of the frame. This consideration and care bring to the Elsie series the warmth and resolution that Leitz lenses are known for. A great companion to the Leitz ELSIE Primes can be found in the Leitz Zooms, as well, in terms of matching image look and feel. These lenses are available to rent in full or partial sets from Cine Visuals.
