Cinematic Excellence for the 65mm Format

The ZEISS Panoptes 65 70mm T2.2 represents the pinnacle of optical expertise, specifically engineered for the demanding requirements of 65mm large format cinematography. This lens delivers a carefully balanced aesthetic characterized by natural colors, forgiving skin textures, and a gentle focus fall-off that culminates in a silky, organic bokeh.

Mastery Over Large Format Sensors

With a generous 59.9mm image circle, the Panoptes 65 series is designed to cover contemporary and future large format systems, including the ARRI Alexa 265, Blackmagic Design URSA Cine 17K 65, and Fujifilm GFX ETERNA 55. The 70mm focal length provides a versatile perspective with high resolution and smooth contrast while minimizing chromatic aberration and distortion.

Professional Workflow and Ergonomics

Built for the rigors of high-end sets, the Panoptes 65 70mm features standardized gear positions for iris and focus. The 95mm front diameter ensures compatibility with common matte boxes, streamlining lens changes. Furthermore, the lens supports ZEISS eXtended Data technology, providing frame-by-frame metadata for distortion and vignetting, essential for modern virtual production and VFX workflows.
