About Zeiss CP.3 XD

What sets the ZEISS CP.3 XD 100mm T2.1 Compact Prime Cine Lens apart is its blend of superior image quality, reliable usability, and innovative technology. This professional-grade lens is renowned for its high-quality optics, delivering clean, crisp images that ZEISS is globally recognized for.

Designed for full-frame coverage, this versatile lens features an interchangeable mount system, making it compatible with a wide array of cameras and mount types, surpassing any other cine lens in the market. This makes it a reliable choice for cinematographers and filmmakers seeking versatility and adaptability in their equipment.

The ZEISS CP.3 XD version stands out with its groundbreaking eXtended Data technology, a feature that simplifies and accelerates both on-set and post-production workflows. This technology combines key lens data based on the open /i Technology standard, supported by a multitude of cameras and accessories, with ZEISS specific lens data that provides precise lens characteristics.

On set, the eXtended Data feature allows crew members to monitor lens settings in real-time, pre-visualize modified images, and utilize new, automated search functions within data wrangling. In post-production, the benefits of eXtended Data are manifold, facilitating image fine-tuning, editing, color grading, visual effects, virtual and augmented reality, multi-cam live productions, projection, and 3-D imaging.

The ZEISS CP.3 XD lens offers an end-to-end solution for recording and feeding data for on-set application and post-production. The eXtended Data is processed in real-time and recorded frame accurately, and can be transferred either to any supported equipment via an external LEMO interface or directly to any camera compatible with the open /i Technology standard via a 4-pin interface (PL-mount).

Moreover, the additional ZEISS plug-in for leading compositing and editing software tools allows for easy implementation of ZEISS eXtended Data, enabling the lens' characteristics to be removed and/or reapplied to the footage. This high-quality, durable, and versatile lens is a testament to ZEISS's commitment to innovation and excellence in the field of cinematography and filmmaking.
