How come us stills guys don't get a solid titanium lens barrel?
Because we don't want to pay 5 figures for a lens USD?

I can't wait to see the first Leica movie made with this glass.
I 'll admit I get more excited about movies than a gallery show.

Are they going right up against Zeiss with these primes like this?
It's my impression the use of primes by cinematographers is less common and
represents a real purist approach.

I've been reading how HCB' s major influence was films. Ones which moved.
And told stories...

Also Barnack.

Film making is very Leica Like.

Which format does a C lens cover? I could not find that nowhere.
