ZEISS introduces four new lenses to the Supreme Prime Radiance lineup

ZEISS has added four new lenses to the ZEISS Supreme Prime Radiance family launched in 2019. The 18 and 135 millimeter focal lengths add telephoto and wide-angle specialties to the seven focal lengths available to date. 

The new 40 and 65 millimeter lenses enhance the standard range.  With a maximum aperture of T1.5, all eleven focal lengths allow the finest nuances of light to be perceived, even in low-light conditions.  The ZEISS T* blue coating was developed especially for this series to allow users to create this look across all focal lengths – without having to sacrifice contrast or light transmission.

Like the ZEISS Supreme Prime lenses, the ZEISS Supreme Prime Radiance lenses offer all the attributes of a state-of-the-art cine lens – with an image circle diameter of 46.3 millimeters, they cover current large-format cine sensors and are compatible with current camera models such as the Sony Venice, the ARRI Alexa LF and Mini LF, or the RED Monstro. Incorporating a uniform front diameter of 95 millimeters and consistently positioned focus and aperture rings, they feature smooth and reliable focusing, simplifying the task of changing lenses on set. The rugged lenses’ average weight is about 1,600 grams (3.5 lbs).  The lenses are equipped with the ZEISS eXtended Data metadata technology launched in 2017.

Deliveries will start in Q3, 2021.
