About Zeiss CP.3 XD

Proven ZEISS quality
The ZEISS CP.3 lenses offer the perfect combination of high image quality and reliable usability. They exhibit the clean, crisp characteristics ZEISS is known for, together with an interchangeable mount system and full-frame coverage. CP.3 lenses are compatible with a wider range of cameras and mount types than any other cine lens on the market.

ZEISS eXtended Data technology
The ZEISS CP.3 XD version features innovative and ground-breaking lens data technology to speed-up and simplify the workflow on set and in post-production. ZEISS eXtended Data unifies two data sets: key lens data based on the open /i Technology standard and supported by a wide range of cameras and accessories, plus ZEISS specific lens data that contains precise lens characteristics.

Efficiency throughout the entire production process, thanks to the ZEISS CP.3 XD lenses

While on set, the ZEISS eXtended Data feature enables members of the crew to monitor lens settings in real-time, pre-visualize modified images and to use new, automated search functions within data wrangling. In post-production, ZEISS eXtended Data offers numerous benefits such as image fine-tuning, editing and color grading, visual effects, virtual and augmented reality, multi-cam live productions, projection or 3-D imaging. An additional plug-in provided by ZEISS allows an easy implementation of ZEISS eXtended Data in a number of leading software tools.

Providing an end-to-end solution
The ZEISS CP.3 XD provides an end-to-end solution for recording and feeding data for onset application and in post-production. ZEISS eXtended Data is processed in real-time and recorded frame accurate. The data can be transferred in one of two ways. 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). With the additional ZEISS plug-in for leading compositing and editing software tools, the lens' characteristics can be removed and/or reapplied to the footage
