Additional Info

These are effectively T2.1 Zeiss ZF DSLR Prime lenses optimised to work with large sensor DSLR cameras rehoused in film lens housing to give superior focus movement.

Focus direction is the same direction as motion picture lenses, no reversible follow focus unit required.

Full frame coverage 24x36mm for focal lengths 21-85mm and all have front element of 114mm including 18mm.

300 degrees focus range.

Irritatingly, these are not a speed-matched set with a common T stop, so we supply a 6 x lens sent including an 18mm/T3.5, and 21mm/T2.9, though from the 28mm onwards, all four remaining focal lengths are matched T2.1 which we find a better combination.

Also the jump between an 18mm and 25mm is quite large, so 18, 21, 28, 35, 50, 85 is a happy compromise!
