Canon L USM DSLR Prime lens set optimised for cinema use with 80mm fronts and external lens gears.

Compatible with EF mount cameras.

VMI EOS sets have been modified to include a follow-focus ring which will allow an ARRI MFF1 follow-focus to operate without attaching an external gear and the fronts have been modified to give a consistent 80mm donut size.

Please note that EOS lenses are designed to have iris controlled from the camera body, so as a rule, do NOT include a manual iris ring.

Front Element screw-in adapters

Note that VMI supplies all L-USM prime lenses with 80mm front element adapters, to allow them all to have a standard 80mm donut fitting for ease of using matte boxes.

However, these are removable to expose the original screw-in thread to fit screw-in adapters like the Genus variable ND screw-in filters.

The Canon L-USM Prime lenses 35mm, 50mm, 85mm & 135mm have a native 77mm thread adapter
The Canon L-USM Prime lenses 24mm has a native 82mm thread adapter

<h3>Known Bug with 85mm</h3> <p>The 85mm lens has an odd fault when using certain video cameras.</p> <p>It is designed to only work when it has power on it and in manual focus mode when working with an Amira or a first generation Canon C300EF. If in auto mode, then the lens won’t rotate the focus ring at all if manually turned, even when switched off or unplugged. Unlike the rest of the EF primes, this lens needs power to work.</p>
