DETAILS
A special coating reflects unwanted stray light and ensures high contrast with deep blacks and true-to-life color rendering. The 11 blade aperture produces lovely bokeh but please note that this lens' maximum T-stop drops to T3.9 on the long end. However, this lens is equipped with what Zeiss calls a "gradient T-stop" that ensures smooth aperture transitions across the entire focal range. The standard 0.8 pitch gears allow for easy use with a follow focus unit and the rubberized focus and zoom rings are tactile and comfortable.
This lens gives you the best of all worlds: long range, lightness, cinema-minded optics and mechanics, and at an affordable price, making the Zeiss LWZ.3 21-100mm T2.9-3.9 EF Mount Lightweight Zoom Lens ideal for budget-minded filmmakers as well as documentary shooters needing 1 lens to cover the greatest number of scenarios.
This is the EF mount version of this lens. For the PL mount version, see Zeiss LWZ.3 21-100mm T2.9 Lens for PL Mount.
