SONY - SELC1635G - FE C 16-35mm T3.1 G Cinema Lens

Description

The Sony FE C 16-35mm T3.1 G is a fast and flexible wide-angle cinema zoom lens for your full-frame or Super 35mm film camera. It features a constant T3.1 aperture and 3 independent rings for precise control. You can use the zoom manually or use the removable servo zoom unit to easily create spectacular fast or slow zooms. It can also be controlled by the camera grip or by an optional external zoom lens. The FE C 16-35 features a true cinema design with its 0.8 MOD gearing and 114mm diameter to fit standard follow focus and matteboxes.

Its optical design incorporates two ultra-low dispersion elements to reduce chromatic aberrations, as well as two XA and three aspherical elements, which significantly control spherical aberrations for a high degree of image sharpness and clarity. In addition, a Nano AR coating has been applied to limit ghosting and lens flare for increased contrast and colour fidelity when working in bright lighting conditions.

Complementing the optical strengths, this lens features an 11-blade round diaphragm to produce superb, smooth bokeh. To control focus, you can quickly switch between AF and MF with a switch. A linear-response manual focus provides responsive, lag-free control for smooth operation. The focus ring offers 120° rotation with precise control and distance is indicated in feet.

The built-in servo unit provides comfortable fingertip control for smooth, progressive zooms ideal for slow-motion drama or promotional video shooting. Servo and manual control can be switched using the lens knob and, when set to servo mode, you can control the zoom via the camera handle or the handle zoom. In addition, you can remove the servo if you wish, making the lens lighter and easily transportable.
