Canon Cine-Servo 50-1000mm T5.0 Overview

The CINE-SERVO 50-1000mm T5.0-8.9 with PL mount from Canon is designed To combine the functionality and form factor of a broadcast, ENG-style-servo zoom lens with the optical precision of a cinema zoom. The lens is designed for use on cinema cameras with Super 35 sized sensors and is suitable for 4K acquisition. with a detachable drive mechanism and support for rod attachment, it is designed To be equally at home whether being used by a solo camera operator or a full production team. The lens features a 20x optical zoom and a focal length Range of 50 To 1000mm with a maximum T stop of 5.0 at the wide end. The lens features a built-in 1.5x extender providing a 75 To 1500mm zoom Range, capable of supporting 4K resolution.

The lens features 180‚° of focus rotation for precise focus pulls and is marked in both feet and meters. The detachable drive unit, can be removed and reattached with the zoom in nay position, requiring no re-calibration. It also supports motorized zoom speeds ranging from 1.5 seconds To 180 seconds To zoom throughout the entire Range. The zoom control includes a mini-LCD that displays zoom, focus, and iris setting. The lens mount supports electronic signal pass through, supporting EOS lens data management functions. The built-in, 12-pin connector allows you To interface this lens with standard broadcast connectors. The 11-blade iris creates circular out of focus highlights and a natural looking Bokeh.

20x Zoom Range

The lens features a 20x zoom Range of 50 To 1000mm, which is very long for a lens that supports the Super35 format. A built-in 1.5x extender allows you To increase the zoom Range To 75 To 1500mm while still supporting 4K resolution.

Suitable for Shoulder Mounted Camera Operation

The lens features the form factor and control layout of typical ENG lenses and is designed To be friendly for a single camera operator To control while using the camera shoulder mounted. The zoom servo is controlled by rocker with the right hand and focus and iris can be operated manually with the left hand

Variable Speed Servo

High speed servo-driven zoom and iris is available for critical situations such as while filming sports or fast action. Meanwhile, slower speed settings are available for more expressive work. with this variability, the zoom duration can be set To last anywhere from 1.5 To 180 seconds

Immediate System Startup

The drive unit features a high-performance encoder so that the lens requires no initialization. This means the system can be used immediately without any delay waiting for it To boot up

Supports Virtual Image Data Output

Via three 20-pin connectors below the servo, it is possible To connect an external system To collect 16-bit virtual image data

Standard Broadcast 12-Pin Camera Interface Cable

The lens features the same 12-pin camera interface for power and serial data as found on regular Canon broadcast lenses

Broadcast Lens-Style Focus Ring

In addition To servo zoom, focus, and iris, another ENG-derived feature is the knurled focus ring, which is limited To a 180‚° rotation

Flange-Back Adjustment

The flange back may be adjusted in the same manner as on broadcast lenses To simplify the transition between different camera systems with different flange focal distances

Fully Closing Iris

The iris may be closed fully for setting camera black balance or other calibration procedures

Detachable Drive Unit

The motor unit housing the servo motors and zoom rocker may be removed for cinema style shooting where full manual control is preferred

Supports Super 35mm Image Sensors

The lens provides a sufficiently large image circle To cover a Super 35mm sensor

Support for Cinema Lens Accessories

The lens is compatible with a wide array of accessories common in the cine industry, including matte boxes, follow focuses, and electronic and wireless controllers.

Lens-to-Camera Metadata Transmission

The lens supports the Cooke/i Lens Camera Data protocols through contacts built into the PL-mount. This allows lens metadata such as zoom setting and iris To be recorded in the camera. Note that a firmware update may be required for proper communications between the lens and the camera.

Serviceable Lens Mounts

The lens mount can be swapped between PL and Canon EF only by an authorized Canon service Facility.

11-Blade Aperture Design

The lens features 11 aperture blades To make lens flares and orbs caused by the bokeh effect as close To round as possible. with fewer blades, it is often possible To see the geometric shape of the aperture. Additionally, using an odd number of blades helps prevent diffraction effects that can cause pin-points of light To produce an unwanted "staring" effect

Lens Design

Aspherical Lens Technology

Since spherical lenses refract more in the periphery than the center, it is essentially impossible for an image To be sharp across the entire frame. Aspherical lenses, on the other hand, are able To maintain much more even focusing across the image area for more uniform focusing. In addition, it means less elements are required in the lens design helping make it not only sharper but reducing the size and weight as well

Canon Fluorite Coating

Because glass lenses can never be totally free from chromatic aberration Canon applies a special coating, fluorite, which has an anomalous dispersion characteristic effectively reducing the aberration below what is possible with optical glass alone

Canon CN-E 14.5-60mm T2.6 L SP Cinema Zoom Overview

Canon wide-angle To moderate telephoto zoom for highest-end cinema shooting the "SP" designation means it has the industry-standard PL lens mount. Optically identical To its EF-mount counterpart, it an optical and mechanical tour-de-force, targeting the most critical working DPs and camera operators. Optics are superb, truly ready for 4K shooting (exceeding the requirements of any current HD system), with virtually no problems such as "breathing" or focus changes during zooming. Mechanically, it totally first-rate, from its smooth focus, zoom and iris rotations, To its resistance To expansion from solar heat.

To reduce chromatic aberration the CN-E14.5-60mm T2.6L S/ L SP zoom lenses employ anomalous dispersion (AD) glass. When light passes through a lens, it refracts (bends). It also breaks up into its constituent colors, just like light passing through a prism. The lower the refractive index of the lens material, the less it bends and the sharper it can be focused. Similarly, the lower the dispersion ratio, the less the light is broken up, which makes it easier To correct chromatic aberration. AD glass is similar To fluorite in that it features a low refractive index and low dispersion. Using AD glass Canon has been able To manufacture lenses with superior performance at a lower cost.

Using the latest advances from new ghosting simulation (optical simulation), that been refined through Canon broadcast HD zoom lens development, an anti-reflective lens coating offers reduced ghosting and flare.

within the optical construction of the zoom lenses large aspherical lenses are deployed To reduce distortion and deliver unrivalled optical performance. In the early days, all lenses were spherical - they are the easiest lens shape To make, but are not best suited To rendering a sharp image as they cannot make parallel rays of light converge at the same point. This causes a problem called spherical aberration. Canon designers discovered that an aspherical (non-spherical) lens shape would eliminate these spherical aberrations, because the curvature of the lens could be used To converge the light rays To a single point.

Cinema Zoom Lenses
Canon brilliant Cinema Zoom lenses offer extraordinary optical performance for demanding high-end productions. with fluorite, aspherical lens elements, and advanced optical design, these lenses cover the Range most commonly used in cinema shooting. Some of the lightest and smallest lenses in their class, these lenses offer consistent form factors and markings optimized for motion picture production. Sharing the same gear position, diameter and rotation angle, and front diameter the lenses' compatibility with third-party accessories allows crews To easily change lenses without making adjustments To the rig setup.

Additional lenses are already under development, reflecting Canon commitment To offer a broad Range of professional cinema lenses To meet your needs, now and in the future.
