Metal Jacket Cinematic Production cage for Leica SL (Typ 601)

The Metal Jacket is a special LockCircle cage project designed to fit like a glove around the
Leica SL (Typ 601) camera, to enhance the cinematic feeling when shooting motion pictures.

One of its features is the exclusive “Asymmetrical Cage Design” for right hand camera
grabbing/control with the original Leica SL camera ergonomic feeling for “still and motion”
production without limitations.

The Metal Jacket has 105 threads 1/4”-20  and 20 threads 3/8”-16  for multi accessories
mounting  like viewfinders, 4K HDMI Recorders, monitors and heavy-duty camera mounting
requested by the film industry.

The Metal Jacket integrates, with the CineBlock interface mount, the original CW Sonderoptic
Leica SL-PL Mount creating a monolithic rock solid cinematic production camera:
perfect to shoot with Summicron-C and Summilux-C Leica Cinema (Academy Awarded) lenses.

in rough production enviroments.
