About Zeiss CP.3 XD

When it comes to superior cinematic lens quality, the ZEISS CP.3 XD 35mm T2.1 Compact Prime Cine Lens for PL Mount stands out in the crowd. This lens is renowned for its exceptional image quality and reliable usability, offering a perfect blend of performance and versatility. The lens showcases the signature clean, crisp imaging that ZEISS is globally recognized for, along with an interchangeable mount system and full-frame coverage. This makes the CP.3 XD 35mm T2.1 lens compatible with a broader range of cameras and mount types than most cine lenses available in the market.

The ZEISS CP.3 XD version is equipped with the innovative ZEISS eXtended Data technology, a ground-breaking lens data system designed to streamline and simplify the workflow both on set and during post-production. This technology combines two data sets: key lens data based on the open /i Technology standard, supported by a multitude of cameras and accessories, and ZEISS specific lens data that provides detailed lens characteristics.

On set, the ZEISS 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 ZEISS eXtended Data are manifold, including 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 35mm T2.1 lens offers an end-to-end solution for recording and feeding data for onset application and in post-production. The ZEISS eXtended Data is processed in real-time and recorded frame accurately. The data 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). An additional ZEISS plug-in is provided for easy implementation of ZEISS eXtended Data in leading software tools, allowing the lens' characteristics to be removed and/or reapplied to the footage. This lens is a comprehensive solution for filmmakers seeking superior image quality and seamless workflow integration.
