While it is a telephoto, it handles with surprising grace; the focus throw is long and incredibly precise, which is vital for hitting sharp focus at f\/2.8. This specific Canadian-made version is highly sought after by cinematographers for its 'organic' rendering—it has a way of smoothing out skin tones while keeping hair and eye detail tack-sharp. When adapted to modern digital mirrorless systems, it becomes a world-class portrait lens that delivers a look and feel that modern autofocus lenses often lose in their quest for clinical perfection.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eCondition Report\u003c\/b\u003e Good condition. The lens barrel (S\/N: 2965703) shows normal signs of light use and minor cosmetic surface wear consistent with its vintage age. The optics are clear, free from fungus, haze, or significant scratches. The manual focus mechanism is smooth and well-dampened. The aperture ring clicks firmly at all stops, and the blades are clean and free of oil. The integrated lens hood slides and holds its position correctly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"9\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9,0,0\"\u003eLeitz Canada Elmarit-R 135mm f\/2.8 Lens (S\/N: 2965703)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9,1,0\"\u003eRear Lens Cap\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9,2,0\"\u003eIntegrated Lens Hood\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Leica","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53960128463188,"sku":"B100W5214MR","price":199.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0780\/2493\/3716\/files\/IMG_5425_3dc4d1b5-6be8-4a81-b67e-4e4f2c7a044b.jpg?v=1773756961","url":"https:\/\/www.htf-store.com\/products\/leitz-canada-elmarit-r-135mm-f-2-8","provider":"Hard to Find Camera Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
