ZEISS Panoptes 65 40mm T2.2 LPL (feet) Prime Lens large format

ZEISS Panoptes 65 lenses bring a rich history of optical expertise in cinema to the 65mm format. Geared towards a diverse range of productions, these lenses carry the hallmarks cinematographers have long trusted and come to expect from ZEISS, combined with a carefully balanced aesthetic for the 65mm format: natural colors, forgiving skin textures, gentle focus fall-off and a silky bokeh.

Covering 65 mm sensor cameras, the set offers an unprecedented consistency with ten focal lengths from 25 to 180 mm, all with a fast T2.2. Featuring ZEISS high-end ergonomics and full lens data support.

Coverage
With their 59.9mm image circle, ZEISS Panoptes 65 lenses cover contemporary and future large format cameras including the ARRI Alexa 265, Blackmagic URSA Cine 17K 65, and Fujifilm GFX ETERNA 55.

Mastery and control over the image
ZEISS Panoptes 65 lenses feature a well-balanced optical character with precise rendering, high resolution, smooth contrast, natural color, forgiving skin textures, gentle focus fall-off and a silky bokeh. Distortion and chromatic aberration are minimized.

Comprehensive, fast and consistent
All ten Panoptes 65 focal lengths from 25mm to 180mm feature a fast T-stop of T2.2. The lenses strike the perfect balance between speed and functionality, maintaining exceptional image quality even wide open.

High-end ergonomics
Panoptes 65 lenses are engineered with professional workflows in mind. They feature a housing design with consistent positions for iris and focus along with standardized front diameters of 95 mm (35, 40, 45, 55, 70, 90, 110, 135) and 114 mm (25, 180). This uniformity streamlines the on-set experience, reducing time spent on adjustments and increasing overall efficiency during production

Full lens data and CinCraft support
Panoptes 65 lenses are equipped with the ZEISS eXtended Data technology, providing frame-by-frame data on lens vignetting and distortion in addition to the standard metadata provided using the Cooke /i technology protocol. On top, they are fully integrated into the ZEISS CinCraft ecosystem, supporting efficient workflows for visual effects, camera tracking, and virtual production.

Automatic transfer of scales and depth of field
Like other modern ZEISS lenses, Panoptes 65 automatically transfer information about lens scales and depth of field to ARRI Hi-5 and WCU-4 hand units when using ARRI cameras and ARRI LCS. This eliminates the need for camera assistants to manually calibrate their lenses, saving valuable time and effort on set.
