When Laowa introduced the Ranger Compact Cine Zoom Series, it marked a significant advancement in full-frame cinematography. The Laowa Ranger 16-30mm T2.9 Cine Lens, compatible with both PL Mount and Canon EF, is meticulously designed to cater to the needs of solo filmmakers and production teams alike. This lens offers a remarkable blend of features and performance, enabling creators to craft cinematic stories with ease.
Weighing approximately 799g (1.76 lbs), the Laowa Ranger lens is exceptionally lightweight, making it ideal for capturing stunning visuals across a wide range of scenarios. Its versatile zoom range, with a total zoom ratio exceeding 6.4x, allows filmmakers to effortlessly capture breathtaking shots from expansive landscapes to intricate close-ups. The lens's parfocal design ensures that subjects remain in sharp focus even when zooming, while the minimal focus breathing provides smooth focus transitions.
One of the standout features of the Ranger lens is its extremely close focusing distance of 0.33m (1'1"), which allows for detailed and intimate close-up shots. The professional cine housing includes a built-in back focus adjustment system, eliminating the need for cumbersome shimming processes and ensuring a seamless shooting experience. The lens also features 0.8 MOD gears for both the aperture and focus rings, unified gear positions for quick focal length changes, and dual scale design with both imperial and metric measurements.
The Laowa Ranger 16-30mm lens supports full-frame and Super 35 cameras with its 43.2mm image circle. Its constant T2.9 aperture throughout the zoom range allows filmmakers to shoot in low-light conditions without the need for exposure adjustments. The lens's 100-degree focus and zoom throws provide precise control over framing and focus, while the 80mm outer diameter and 77mm filter thread accommodate standard matte boxes and filters.
Each lens comes equipped with a native PL mount and includes an interchangeable EF bayonet. For those using mirrorless cameras, additional interchangeable mounts are available, including Canon RF, Sony E, Nikon Z, and L mount options. The Laowa Ranger 16-30mm T2.9 Cine Lens is the ultimate tool for filmmakers seeking to capture stunning cinematic masterpieces with ease and precision.
