Crafted to meet the demands of modern cinema and the evolving digital landscape, the Zeiss CP.3 series represents a significant advancement in lens technology. These lenses are designed to facilitate a versatile and cost-effective workflow, while delivering the premium quality that has become synonymous with the Zeiss brand.

The 85mm T2.1 CP.3 lens boasts a wide T2.1 aperture, enabling cinematographers to achieve a shallow depth of field and capture stunning images even in challenging low-light conditions. The manual focus mechanism provides meticulous control over the image, allowing for precise adjustments and creative flexibility.

The robust and durable build of the CP.3 lenses ensures they can withstand the rigors of demanding film sets.

True to the cinematic heritage of Zeiss, the CP.3 lenses deliver a 'true cine look' with their advanced lens coatings, painted lens rims, and internal light traps that effectively eliminate veiling glare and lens flares. The result is images with higher contrast, deeper blacks, and more saturated colors, ideal for High Dynamic Range (HDR) projects.

The ergonomic design of the Zeiss CP.3 lenses prioritizes ease of use and efficiency on set. Standardized focus ring positions and a consistent 95mm front diameter enable swift equipment changes, while the smooth focus rotation performs flawlessly in extreme temperatures. The uniform T-stops across the lens series simplify lighting setups and exposure adjustments.

For dynamic shooting scenarios, the compact and lightweight design of the CP.3 lens is indispensable. It is perfectly suited for handheld, gimbal, drone, and Steadicam applications, allowing for unobtrusive camera setups and the capture of fluid, engaging shots.

The Zeiss CP.3 lenses are equipped with the innovative Zeiss extended Data technology, which provides real-time information about lens distortion and shading characteristics. This feature ensures that every frame captures the lens settings digitally, streamlining post-production workflows and enhancing creative possibilities.

With a range of focal lengths from 15mm to 135mm, the CP.3 series covers all applications from wide-angle to telephoto. The 85mm T2.1 lens, in particular, offers a horizontal angle of view that adds depth and dimension to your images, making it an ideal choice for portrait shots and close-up scenes.
