Description — Leica 120mm T2.6
The Leitz Cine THALIA 120mm T2.6 is a Large Format, PL Mount prime lens designed for professional cinema and video production. With a fixed focal length of 120mm placing it in the telephoto range, this manual focus prime delivers a precise, dedicated perspective suited to portrait work, compression, and controlled telephoto cinematography. Its T2.6 maximum aperture ensures solid light transmission in a large format optical package.
As a manual focus lens with no autofocus capability, it is built for production environments where lens control systems and follow focus setups handle focus pulls with precision. The lens connects via PL Mount, the standard interface across a wide range of professional cinema cameras operating in the Cinema / Video camera system category. Weighing 1,676g, it is a substantial piece of glass that performs best on a fully rigged camera build. Image stabilization is not present, so support infrastructure is essential at this focal length.
No filter thread size is listed in specifications.
