The Leitz Cine THALIA-T 90mm T2.2 is a premium-quality cinema prime designed for LPL-mount digital cinema cameras with large-format sensors. It produces a distinct vintage-film look. Key features include:
LPL-mount 90mm cine lens
Large-format 60mm image circle
Distinct bokeh for soft focus or sharp contrast
Fifteen-blade aperture, circular through all stops
Large Format LPL-Mount Cine Lens. You can use the Leitz Cine THALIA-T 90mm T2.2—and every LPL-mount lens in Leitz’s THALIA series—on LPL-mount full-frame professional cine cameras with sensors up to 65mm like the ARRI ALEXA LF and ARRI ALEXA Mini LF.
Lens Characteristics. This lens differs a bit from others in the Thalia line because it’s based on the optics of the Leica 90mm f/2.2 Thambar-M. This lens has a very soft focus when fully opened at T2.2 with unique bokeh. The lens does regain contrast as it is stopped down. While the Leitz THALIAs aren’t vintage lenses, they produce many appealing image characteristics that come with older lenses.
Cinematic Bokeh. Each of the THALIA lenses boasts a fifteen-blade aperture that maintains a circular iris through all aperture stops. While this lens purposefully has under-corrected spherical aberrations, the iris design maintains circular bokeh as the wider aperture increases the intensity of the aberration.
