Leica Summicron-C 18mm t/2.0 Prime Lens (S35, PL)

The Leica Summicron-C 18mm T/2.0 at Lightbulb Rentals features a stainless steel PL mount and offers a compact and lightweight alternative to the Summilux-C series. Its 18mm focal length is ideal for wide-angle shots in Super 35 format, providing expansive coverage with minimal distortion.

Suitable for regular production, stabilized rigs, aerial cinematography, and stereoscopic 3D, it projects a usable 36mm image circle compatible with cameras slightly larger than Super 35. The T2.0 aperture remains consistent across the range, ensuring seamless exposure transitions between Summicron-C lenses.

Geared focus and iris rings are positioned identically for easy lens changes without adjusting follow focus systems. With an internal focus design, the lens maintains a non-rotating front for clip-on matte boxes.

Dual focus scales with ample marks and a 300deg focus rotation facilitate precise focus adjustments. All Summicron-C lenses share a standard 95mm front diameter and similar weights and lengths, except for the 15mm and 135mm variants.
