Zeiss CP3-25 CP.3 25mm T2.1 Compact Prime Lens in Feet Scale

Digital technologies have transformed traditional filmmaking and refashioned the market, and the ZEISS Compact Prime CP.3 lenses are tailored for today’s cinema and beyond - with this model series, the CP.3 25mm T2.1 Compact Prime Lens available in the following mount options - MFT, Nikon F, PL, Sony E and Canon EF mount variants. New and innovative technologies in both production and post-production have paved the way for a more versatile, cost effective and advanced workflow. The ZEISS CP.3 family of full frame lenses are the latest contribution from ZEISS to support creative and progressive filmmaking with an affordable, future-proof and premium quality lens set.

The ZEISS CP.3 lenses offer the perfect combination of high image quality and reliable usability. They exhibit the clean, crisp characteristics ZEISS is known for, together with an interchangeable mount system and full-frame coverage. The ZEISS CP.3 lenses feature advanced lens coatings, painted lens rims and special light traps within the barrel to eliminate unwelcome veiling glare and flares. The result is higher contrast, richer blacks and more saturated colors, enabling shooting in High Dynamic Range (HDR) modes with subtly nuanced differences in deep shadows and bright highlights in the same scene. With the ZEISS CP.3 lenses, there is a greater depth to the images than ever before.

And, if you're looking for a future-proof solution - ZEISS CP.3 lenses are equipped with an easy-to-operate, interchangeable mount system. It enables a quick change from the typical cine-style PL-mount to four other mount options (Canon EF, Nikon F, Sony E or MFT). This proven feature offers tremendous flexibility and future-proof investment in today’s rapidly changing camera market.
