Canon CN-E 14.5-60mm T2.6 Cinema Zoom Lens (EF mount)

A breakthrough lens for Canon, that leverages years of Canon experience with broadcast TV and ENG-camera optics. Now, Canon enters the motion picture market, with zooms designed for Super 35-size film and digital cameras and, optically ready for 4K resolution. The "S" designation indicates this is a Cinema EF lens, with Canon's EF lens mount. With wide to "portrait length" tele coverage, it's the ideal standard zoom for TV, cinema, documentary shooting, and more. Focus operation is super-smooth, gear positions are identical to the 30-300mm telephoto zoom, and the optical design is uncompromised for high-end cine use.

With a focal length range of 14.5-60mm, the 4.1x cinema zoom lens is designed to cover the wider end of the focal lengths typically required by cinematic productions, and its wide-angle length of 14.5mm puts it among the best in its class. (The other zoom lens in the line, the CN-E 30-300mm T2.95-3.7 L S, covers the telephoto end.) Maximum aperture is a very fast T2.6 through the entire range, and the 11-blade iris enables a smooth bokeh for out-of-focus areas of the frame.

Main Features:

• EF-mount "standard" zoom lens, designed to cover Super 35 and APS-C size image sensors (will not cover full-frame digital SLRs)
• Outstanding mechanical design, with incredibly smooth manual focus (300° rotation) and zooming (160° rotation)
• Uniform gearing position for easy changes to Canon's new 30 300mm Cinema EF lens
• Large aspherical lens elements to achieve sharp, consistent images in virtually every shooting situation
• Geared inner focusing minimizes focus-induced changes in the angle of view, reducing focus breathing virtually to zero
• Uniform gear position, diameter and rotation angle as well as front lens diameters, enabling the film crew to quickly change lenses without adjustment of the rig setup
• A covered flangeback adjustment mechanism is included
• Control rings are designed to maintain the proper amount of resistance with consistent operating torque
• Focus markings can be switched from standard labelling to metric
• Markings on angled surfaces on both sides of the barrel, making it easy to read focus and aperture settings from behind or either side of the camera
• The 11-blade aperture diaphragms ensure beautiful bokeh while innovative glass construction counteracts barrel expansion and contraction to avoid temperature-induced marking discrepancies
• Unit Dimensions: 5.35 x 6.42 x 12.83" (136.0 x 163.1 x 326.0mm)
• Unit Weight: 9.9 lb (4.5kg)
