=====Leitz Cine Summilux-C 40mm T1.4 ===== {{ :lens:leitz-summilux-c-40mm.png?direct&400|}} ==== Summary ==== The SUMMILUX-C lenses allow the subject to be captured as you see it without significant color temperature shifts or loss of clarity. All colors retain their natural look and feel with special care being shown to skin tones to keep them humane but without looking over sharp or flat. It’s a characteristic called creamy sharpness that can be seen as well as felt in an image. ==== Tech Specs ==== | Manufacturer |Leitz| | Series |Cine| | Model |Summilux-C| | Focal Length |40mm| | Max Aperture |T1.4| | Min Aperture |T22| | Format |Super 35| | Image Circle |33mm| | Minimum Focus |18 in.| | Focus Rotation |300| | Iris Blades |11| | Optical Design |-| | Squeeze |none| | Front Diameter |95mm| | Filter Thread |92mm| | Focus/Zoom Rod |-| | Native Mount |PL| | Data Protocol |none| | Length |5.59 in.| | Weight |1633 g| | Body Telescope |none| | Body Material |Aluminum| | Focus Drive |Manual| | Iris Drive |Manual| | Zoom Drive |n/a| ==== History ==== Country of Origin: Germany \\ Release Date: - \\ Launch Price: - \\ Design Revisions:\\ ==== Service ==== Known Issues: If lens has impact damage, focus may feel rough/bumpy\\ focus cam has aluminum V-groove raceways on top and bottom in addition to the aluminum focus cam, with steel bearings (usually a poor combo). Bearings often dent the soft raceways, making focus feel bumpy/grindy. Will need a full CLA to access, smooth and adjust for good focus feel. Smoothing dents can be hit or miss in success rate and should add at least 1 hour to quote. Lens will need to be opened to confirm the severity of the dents. Replacement cam and raceway rings may be necessary if dents are too deep and/or too much sanding is required. \\ \\ Service Manual: [[staff:servicedb:Leitzsummilux-c40mm|40mm Disassembly/Re-assembly]] \\ \\ Full CLA: **10-12 hrs.**\\ Enter relevant notes here\\ Smooth raceways: **10-12hrs. + 1 hr.**\\ re-center optics only: **2 hrs.**\\ C + A front optics: **5-6 hrs**\\ ==== Notes ==== ==== Media ====
