Leitz Cine Introduces Fujifilm G Mount For Hektor Lenses

German lens manufacturer Leitz Cine GmbH is expanding the compatibility of its Hektor line of mirrorless prime lenses for cine and photo use with the introduction of an interchangeable G mount. The ability to use the lenses with the Fujifilm G mount opens up new creative opportunities for users of Fujifilm’s GFX Eterna 55 extra large format cine camera as well as the GFX100 series of mirrorless digital cameras.

Customers can purchase the lens directly with a G mount, or purchase the G mount as a separate part and change the mount themselves. Changing mounts on the Leitz Hektor lenses is relatively quick and easy with just a few tools. Other mount options for the lenses include: Sony E, Leica L, Canon RF, and Nikon Z. 
 
Said Managing Director Rainer Hercher: “As formats and camera systems continue to evolve, we are happy to be working with so many manufacturers to ensure that the creatives using their cameras have access to some of the most exciting new lenses like the Leitz Hektor series.” 
 
While designed initially for full frame coverage, the Hektor lenses create a much larger image circle, Leitz said. And while not all focal lengths can be used in full sensor open gate mode, they do support the traditional cinema aspect ratios with only a small amount of edge cropping required on the widest focal lengths.
