The Next Generation of Cinema Zoom Lenses

Advanced Optical Performance

Featuring a completely new optical design, the Optimo Ultra Compact provides superb image quality starting at a fast T2.9 aperture. It delivers a perfect homogeneity of color, contrast, and resolution across the entire zoom range. With a 2.7x zoom ratio, the lens exhibits no ramping and minimal breathing, ensuring a consistent cinematic aesthetic for high-end productions.

• Optical Balance: Well-controlled performance at every focal length for an appealing cinematic look.

Rugged and Ergonomic Mechanical Design

Built for extreme shooting environments, the lens features passive athermalization from -20°C to +45°C. The precise mechanical guiding system ensures smooth operation of the focus and zoom groups. The focus ring offers a 310° rotation with user-optimized markings, and the focus scales are easily interchangeable between feet and metric.

Full Pack Versatility and Metadata

This Full Pack version includes IRO (Interchangeable Rear Optics) Technology, allowing for use in both FF/VV and U35 configurations. It comes equipped with a PL mount and supports Cooke Metadata via an external connector, facilitating seamless data transfer to external drives or display units on set.
