Rental ID: ZEISS_18MM_SUPREME_PRIME_T1.5_LENS_RENTAL
The ZEISS 18mm Supreme Prime T1.5 is a high-end, high-speed cinema lens that is both smaller and lighter, featuring a more versatile image look that is ideal for use with the ARRI ALEXA MINI LF, RED MONSTRO VV 8K, Sony VENICE, and full frame / large-format LF digital cinema cameras. The Supreme Prime look is a notable departure from that of Master Primes, in that it is sharper while remaining organic, color neutral, and quite forgiving overall (particularly when filming skin tones, thanks to redesigned contrast levels). Each Supreme Prime also features Cooke /i lens data system technology, compatible with ARRI, Red, Sony, Panasonic and Canon PL/LPL mount cameras.
Covering a 46.3mm image circle, the Zeiss Supreme Prime 18mm T1.5 Lens can be used with full-frame and Super35 sensors. The internal focus design of this compact lens ensures very minimal focus breathing. Additionally, the Zeiss eXtended Data system transfers lens data to a camera, Master Lockit, or select other devices via a LEMO cable connection to allow for adjustment of distortion and shading. This can be done in real time or with a variety of software. The lens has an interchangeable PL mount and is marked in feet.
The fast T1.5 aperture of the Supreme Prime 18mm lens allows for low-light capture, while smooth transitioning between in-focus and out-of-focus areas results in pleasing focus falloff and greater depth in the image. The lens has a 16-blade iris and smooth 300° focus rotation. The minimum focus distance is 14″. The 18mm is color-matched with the rest of the Supreme Prime lineup and shares many other consistent features, including standardized positioning of the focus and iris rings. The lens features a 114mm front to accommodate its fast aperture and also comes with a removable support foot with a 3/8″-16 mounting thread.
