Premium 65mm Large Format Cinematography
The ZEISS Panoptes 65 45mm T2.2 represents a pinnacle in large format optical design, specifically engineered to meet the demands of 65mm cinema sensors. With a generous 59.9mm image circle, this lens provides full coverage for high-end systems like the ARRI Alexa 265 and Blackmagic Design URSA Cine 17K 65. It combines the legendary ZEISS medium format heritage with modern precision to deliver an emotionally engaging look.
Mastery of Light and Texture
The Panoptes 65 series is renowned for its well-balanced optical character. The 45mm focal length offers a natural perspective with high resolution and smooth contrast. Cinematographers can expect:
- Forgiving skin textures and natural color rendering.
- Gentle focus fall-off that creates a three-dimensional feel.
- Silky bokeh and minimized chromatic aberration.
High-End Ergonomics and Workflow Efficiency
Designed for professional sets, the Panoptes 65 45mm features a standardized 95mm front diameter and consistent gear positions for iris and focus. This uniformity allows for seamless lens swaps without readjusting follow focus motors or matte boxes. For ARRI users, the lens automatically communicates scales and depth of field data to Hi-5 and WCU-4 hand units, eliminating manual calibration.
Advanced Data Support for Modern Production
Equipped with ZEISS eXtended Data technology and Cooke /i protocol support, this lens provides frame-by-frame distortion and vignetting metadata. It is fully integrated into the ZEISS CinCraft ecosystem, making it an ideal choice for visual effects, camera tracking, and virtual production environments.
