About Zeiss CP.3 XD
Are you seeking professional-grade, high-quality optics for your photography or videography needs Look no further than the ZEISS CP.3 XD 85mm T2.1 Compact Prime Cine Lens for PL Mount, Meter. This reliable and durable lens is renowned for its exceptional image quality and versatile usability, making it a standout choice for professionals and enthusiasts alike.
The ZEISS CP.3 XD 85mm T2.1 lens offers a fast aperture, allowing for a shallow depth of field and superior performance in low light conditions. Its fixed focal length of 85mm is perfect for capturing stunning portraits or detailed close-ups. Designed for full-frame and Vistavision cameras, this lens provides comprehensive coverage and compatibility, surpassing other cine lenses in the market.
One of the key features of this lens is the innovative ZEISS eXtended Data technology. This groundbreaking feature unifies two data sets: key lens data based on the open /i Technology standard, and ZEISS specific lens data that contains precise lens characteristics. This technology simplifies the workflow on set and in post-production, allowing for real-time monitoring of lens settings, pre-visualization of modified images, and automated search functions within data wrangling.
In post-production, the ZEISS eXtended Data technology offers numerous benefits such as image fine-tuning, editing and color grading, visual effects, virtual and augmented reality, multi-cam live productions, projection, and 3-D imaging. An additional plug-in provided by ZEISS ensures easy implementation of ZEISS eXtended Data in a number of leading software tools.
The ZEISS CP.3 XD 85mm T2.1 lens provides an end-to-end solution for recording and feeding data for onset application and in post-production. The data is processed in real-time and recorded frame accurately, either transferred 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).
In conclusion, the ZEISS CP.3 XD 85mm T2.1 Compact Prime Cine Lens for PL Mount, Meter is a versatile, high-quality lens that offers unparalleled image quality, innovative data technology, and efficient workflow solutions for both on-set and post-production scenarios.
