Lightweight Zoom LWZ.2

For an even more breathtaking performance.

The Lightweight Zoom LWZ.2 is the first on the market to combine outstanding optical image quality with an Interchangeable Mount System.. The LWZ.2 is a cine lens designed for use with HDSLR as well as traditional cine cameras. The Interchangeable Mount System guarantees high flexibility for present and future use in any situation and for a wide range of camera platforms. With the five different mounts available (PL, EF, F, MFT, E mount) there there is no need for adapter solutions anymore. Exotic glass materials and the T* XP anti-reflex coating ensure a sharp, high resolution image that covers the entire Super 35 frame and perfectly matches the other ZEISS cine lenses.

  • Interchangeable mount
  • Super color matched with all ZEISS cine lenses
  • Highest optical performance despite compact build
  • T* XP coating ensures flare resistance
  • Robust cine-style housing
  • Calibrated focus scales
  • Consistent aperture over the zoom range
  • No focus shift over the zoom range

Application

The Lightweight Zoom LWZ.2 is the ideal lens for shooting in confined spaces like airplanes, car interiors or elevators. It is also great when a lightweight camera is needed for action sequences, and for applications where size and weight are at a premium, including Steadicam, handheld, remote heads, car rigs, motorcycle rigs, bicycle mounts, body mounts and underwater shoots. In addition, small size and light weight afford a more efficient shooting pace.
