Both lens are equipped with the new e-Xs V servo drive unit, ideal for sports event with its improvements to focus and iris speeds, as well as focus breathing connection linked to the zoom for automatic precise correction. The Drive unit is detachable for use in cinema style.

Versatile 17-120mm with outstanding optical performance

Matches the specification of the popular and award-winning CINE-SERVO 17-120mm.

This lens is designed with a consistently warm color balance that reproduces skin tones and is compatible with HDR. Also, the 11-blade iris gives natural bokeh that is nearly circular from fully open to minimum aperture.

The odd number of iris blades produce a soft and diffused light beam when shooting bright subjects.

Next-Generation e-Xs V Servo Drive Unit

Canon's next-generation servo drive unit has the same, operability and usability as ENG lenses with faster focus and iris speed, Focus Breathing Compensation, and a USB-C connector. The e-Xs V Drive Unit can also be detached to be used in manual-style cinema configurations.

• Improved Servo Control - Faster focus and iris speed
• Focus Breathing Compensation - Minimizes image distortion when racking focus. This setting can easily be turned on or off depending on preference
• New USB-C Port - Allows Drive Unit settings to be saved and loaded into other lenses. Also users can record and save maintenance history

Supports 8K/4K cameras

Canon's optical technologies use large-diameter aspherical lenses and anomalous dispersion glass delivering optical performance that supports 8K cameras throughout the zoom range.

Aberrations are controlled as much as possible for outstanding performance from the center of the image to the edges.

Remote and Virtual Support

The high-resolution, 16-bit absolute value encoder enables high-precision location detection, making calibration easier when creating virtual content. The 20-Pin connector can be switched to a virtual terminal to output zoom, focus, and iris position information.
