CRK Photo Imaging offers a premium selection of Canon cine lenses, designed to meet the exacting standards of professional filmmakers. These high-performance optics deliver exceptional image quality, precise control, and durability required for demanding production environments.
Cine lenses offer several key benefits over standard photographic lenses in filmmaking applications. The parfocal design maintains focus while zooming, crucial for smooth shot transitions. Consistent aperture across zoom range ensures uniform exposure. Declicked aperture rings allow for silent, precise adjustment during takes. Longer focus throw enables more accurate manual focusing. Standardised gear positions facilitate easy integration with follow-focus systems and matte boxes.
While sharing optical fundamentals, cine lenses differ significantly from standard lenses in design, and functionality. Cine lenses prioritise smooth, silent operation essential for film production. They feature industry-standard gearing for compatibility with professional accessories. Robust construction withstands the rigours of film sets. Cine lenses often offer wider focus scales, allowing for precise distance markings. These specialised features contribute to higher costs compared to standard photographic lenses.
Choosing the ideal Canon lens for filming depends on specific project requirements and shooting style. For versatility, Canon's CN-E 18-80mm T4.4 COMPACT-SERVO offers a wide zoom range and servo functionality. Prime lenses like CN-E 35mm T1.5 L F provide exceptional low-light performance and shallow depth of field. Consider factors such as focal length needs, desired aperture range, and budget constraints when selecting. Canon's diverse cine lens lineup ensures suitable options for various production scenarios.
