Become a Pioneer in Macro Cinematography with the DZOFILM X-Tract 18-28mm T8 2.1x Macro Probe Lens for PL Mount. Inspired by the concept of 'extracting' the essence of hidden worlds, this lens is designed to delve into narrow, concealed spaces, capturing microscopic details that are invisible to the naked eye. Its sleek, spacecraft-inspired design, combined with a T8 large aperture and wide-angle zoom macro capabilities, redefines the boundaries of macro cinematography, offering filmmakers a tool for exploration and discovery.The X-Tract 18-28mm T8 wide-angle probe zoom lens opens new dimensions in macro cinematography, providing unparalleled creative flexibility. Its full-frame design is compatible with Super 35 sensors, delivering an equivalent focal length of approximately 22-35mm T8 in Arri Alexa 35 Open Gate mode. This versatility covers key focal lengths essential for commercial work, allowing for flexible adjustments in tight spaces and enhancing spatial depth and perspective. With a constant aperture, the lens ensures consistent brightness across all focal lengths, making it ideal for professional use.Achieve Immaculate Visuals with Masterful Optical Balance. The lens features 7 high-refractive-index (HRI) lenses and 6 extra-low-dispersion (ED) lenses, minimizing chromatic aberrations and distortions. Its innovative differential distribution of HRI lenses delivers prime-level image quality and accurate color temperature, effectively reducing the yellowish tint often seen in other probe lenses. With distortion kept within +/-2% across the entire zoom range and near-zero distortion and focus breathing at 24mm, the X-Tract lens ensures precise rendering of intricate micro-details.Experience Seamless Creativity with Optimal Focus Control. The lens offers a smooth 300-degree focus throw, crafted with micron-level precision for seamless focus transitions and enhanced depth of field control. Its parfocal design locks focus during zooming, maintaining sharpness even with subtle movements or rapid focal length changes, allowing for the classic Hitchcock dolly zoom effect in macro shots.Enjoy Unmatched Breathing Control Beyond Primes. The X-Tract series features native breath control, reducing breathing effects to just 0.5% at 24mm, compared to 39.2% in other 24mm probe primes. With a relative illumination of 70.7%, focus breathing becomes virtually imperceptible, minimizing the need for post-production adjustments and ensuring seamless visual continuity during focus shifts.Unlock a New World with Ultra-Macro Capabilities. With a maximum magnification ratio of 2.1:1, the X-Tract lens reveals intricate textures of everyday objects, creating stunning, highly detailed visuals. Its minimum focusing distance is reduced to 47.3cm (1'6"), with a minimum working distance of just 6mm (0.2"), allowing the lens to almost touch the subject for finer macro details.Built for Any Challenge, the lens is constructed from aerospace-grade aluminum alloy, offering lightweight yet robust durability. A 25-microm anodized coating enhances hardness, improving abrasion resistance and corrosion protection. Tested under extreme temperatures from -30 Degree C to 70 Degree C, it ensures stability in challenging environments. With an IP57-rated dust and water resistance, the lens body is waterproof to over 28 cm, and the front lens element features a hydrophobic anti-fog coating for consistently clear imagery.Agile and Flexible, the lens weighs just 1.09 kg, with a length of 41.5 cm and a front diameter of only 29.6 mm, allowing for smooth operation in narrow spaces. Its rear-heavy design shifts the balance closer to the camera body, enhancing stability on tripods, sliders, and stabilizers, and enabling precise focus and zoom adjustments.Crafted to Cine-Standard Precision, the lens features an M0.8 gear pitch compatible with most accessories and cine lens control systems. The dual-sided hydrophobic-coated UV filter and O-type quick-release clamp protect the lens during specialized shoots, enhancing stability and versatility. Clear markings for magnification ratio, waterproof lines, and rotation scales on the lens body improve usability, offering filmmakers a seamless shooting experience.The Short Rear Design of the X-Tract Series reimagines versatility with a next-generation short rear design. The native PL mount features rear elements that protrude just 1.37 cm from the mounting flange, compatible with DZOFILM Octopus and most PL-E/RF/LPL adapters and Speedboosters. This design enables larger apertures and a wider field of view, meeting high-speed shooting needs and providing users with greater creative flexibility.
