About Zeiss CP.3 XD

When it comes to capturing cinematic excellence, the ZEISS CP.3 XD 15mm T2.9 Compact Prime Cine Lens for PL Mount stands out as a high-quality, professional choice for filmmakers and videographers. This durable lens is renowned for its versatility, offering a wide-angle focal length of 15mm that is ideal for shooting expansive landscapes, architectural wonders, and immersive scenes with a profound sense of depth. Its fast T2.9 maximum aperture excels in low-light conditions, allowing for a shallow depth of field that brings subjects into stunning focus while beautifully blurring the background.

Crafted with ZEISS's legendary precision, the CP.3 XD lens series is synonymous with crisp, clean image quality and reliable usability. The full-frame coverage ensures compatibility with a broad array of full-frame and Vistavision cameras, while the interchangeable mount system extends its versatility even further, making it one of the most adaptable cine lenses available.

Innovative ZEISS eXtended Data technology sets the CP.3 XD lenses apart, revolutionizing the production workflow both on set and in post-production. This groundbreaking feature combines essential lens data compliant with the open /i Technology standard and ZEISS-specific lens characteristics, delivering precise information that enhances efficiency across all stages of production.

On set, ZEISS eXtended Data enables real-time monitoring of lens settings, facilitating pre-visualization of modified images and streamlining data wrangling with new automated search functions. For post-production professionals, the benefits are manifold, including refined image fine-tuning, editing, color grading, and integration into visual effects, virtual/augmented reality, multi-cam live productions, projection, and 3-D imaging.

The ZEISS CP.3 XD lens provides a comprehensive end-to-end solution for capturing and utilizing data. Real-time processing and frame-accurate recording of ZEISS eXtended Data ensure seamless transfer to any supported equipment via an external LEMO interface or directly to cameras compatible with the open /i Technology standard through a 4-pin interface (PL-mount). Additionally, ZEISS offers a plug-in for leading compositing and editing software tools, enabling effortless implementation and manipulation of the lens' characteristics in post-production.

For professionals seeking a lens that combines wide-angle prowess with advanced data technology, the ZEISS CP.3 XD 15mm T2.9 Compact Prime Cine Lens for PL Mount is an innovative, high-performance choice that delivers on both creative flexibility and technical precision.
