While targeted to the entry-level filmmaker, the Zeiss Compact Primes are precisely tailored to meet the needs of professional cine applications:
• Modern lens design
o Results in high resolution, rich contrast and low distortion – even in the wide angle range
• Compact Primes are the only range of PL mount lenses to cover a full-frame, 24mm x 36mm sensor size
o Ideally suited for future digital cinema cameras using this larger sensor
o Customers purchasing the lenses today will not need to reinvest in a new lens set as the next generation cameras are introduced
• Compact Primes are the smallest and lightest range of PL mount lenses available today
o Better for hand-held and Steadicam operations
• Compact Primes are the only, entry-level PL mount lens which features the same barrel dimension
o Standard focus and iris positions
o Each of the seven different focal lengths can be easily mixed without changing the position of the matte box, follow-focus and lens motor
• All focus scales are individually calibrated
o Precise focusing
• Innovative 14-blade iris, with rounded edges
o Produces ‘organic’ looking, perfectly circular, out-of-focus highlights
• Carl Zeiss T* multilayer, anti-reflective coating
o Provides excellent flare reduction and superior image contrast
• Each lens is color matched to each other
o Easily interchange lenses without altering the color of contrast reproduction
