Leitz Hektor 135mm f/4.5 - Leica LTM
Leitz Hektor 135mm f/4.5 is a manual-focus telephoto lens for Leica LTM/M39 cameras. It is a compact, simple long lens from the post-war Leitz range, designed for rangefinder use with a modest f/4.5 maximum aperture and classic all-metal construction. Compared with faster or later 135mm Leica lenses, the Hektor is usually valued more for its small size, straightforward handling and distinctive rendering than for outright speed. The long focal length suits portraits, candid work and compressed perspective, while the manual focusing and preset-era design mean operation is deliberate rather than quick. As an older optical design, it can be perfectly usable on digital bodies with the right adapter, but edge performance, contrast and flare control are best judged on the individual sample and its condition. Used examples are worth checking carefully for smooth focus travel, oil on aperture blades, haze, separation, fungus and general mount wear, as well as any signs of cleaning marks on the front and rear elements.
