Fujinon Mk 50-135mm T2.9 X-Mnt Cine Lens

Growth of video production has created a demand among videographers and cinematographers for lenses optimized to shoot. The new MKX lenses deliver high optical performance and comfortable operation for professional video shooting. The MKX50-135mm is one of the most frequently used focal lengths in video production and achieves a constant T2.9 aperture across the entire zoom range, allowing a shallow depth of field as well as a beautiful bokeh effect. The lens design is optimized for shooting videos as they minimize focus shift and optical axis shift while zooming, and reduce lens breathing (the change of angle of view during focusing). It also feature three rings to enable manual and independent operation of focus, zoom and iris (aperture), all with the gear pitch of 0.8M (module).

• Constant T2.9 Aperture
• Beautiful Bokeh Effect
• Macro Function
• Filter Diameter: 82mm

Highlights:

• Optical construction of 22 elements in 17 groups (includes 2 extra low dispersion elements and 2 super extra low dispersion elements)
• Achieves a constant T2.9* aperture across the entire zoom range, allowing a shallow depth of field and beautiful bokeh effect, that eliminates the need to readjust lighting and shortens shooting time (*T-stop value is an index that indicates brightness of a lens based on its F-stop value and transmission rate. The smaller the value, the greater amount of light the lens transmits.)
• Compact and lightweight body achieves advanced optical performance by incorporating a short flange focal distance of X Mount into optical design to the maximum extent. This accommodates shooting with a limited number of people
• Electrical contact to communicate with the X Series camera corrects the distortion and colour/brightness shading, and achieves various colour expressions with Film Simulation modes
• Front focusing group of lens elements and zooming group of lens elements are driven independently from one another to suppress focus shift while zooming, which eliminates the need to re-focus after zooming in or out. The optical and mechanical approach means there is no time lag as seen in an electrical control system
• Use of the front inner-focusing system controls lens breathing (change of angle of view during focusing which achieves smooth focusing)
• Focus ring features a rotation of a full 200 degrees to allow precise focusing even when shooting with a shallow depth-of-field where a high degree of precision is required
• Features three fully manual rings to allow independent adjustment of focus, zoom and iris (aperture) for intuitive operations without time lag
• All operation rings have a gear pitch of 0.8M, similar to other FUJINON cinema lenses, which allows the use of all standard third party accessories for video production, e.g. Follow Focus that enable accurate and smooth focusing
• Iris supports seamless adjustment free of clicking forprecise and silent exposure adjustment while preventing camera shake caused by the clicking
• Gears for the three rings are positioned in the same place to eliminate the need to re-position accessories when switching lenses
• Macro function allows shooting close-up (Minimum Object Distance of 0.38m -wide end) to broaden the range of scenes that can be covered with one lens
• Accommodates 82mm filter size
• Compatible with FUJIFILM X Mount cameras
