DZOFILM Vespid 21mm PL EF

Relatively small and light, the DZOFilm VESPID 21mm T2.1 lens is part of DZOFilm's VESPID lens series and is suitable for independent and high-end full frame cinematography. The lens has an 80mm front diameter, which allows it to work with virtually any cine-style matte box. The small size makes this lens an attractive option when working with drones and gimbals, as well as when shooting handheld or run-and-gun. The interchangeable PL mount allows the fully manual lens to be used on a variety of modern and vintage film cameras, while the full frame coverage supports sensors with an image circle of up to 46.5mm for use on cameras with sensors up to full frame without vignetting.

The 16-blade diaphragm, which is consistent across the VESPID prime lens range, creates round blurry lights that look more natural and contribute to the lens's natural-looking bokeh. The focus ring features 270 ° rotation for precise focusing and the aperture ring has generous 64 ° rotation. Cine-style toothed crowns on focus and iris rings make the lens compatible with cine-style lens accessories such as focus units, lens motors, and lens control systems. The lens has a magnetically attached rear filter for ND filters.

Main features

• This 21mm lens has an image circle that covers a full frame sensor. When mounted on a camera with a Super35 sensor, it provides a closer shot than a camera with a full frame sensor.
• The lenses provide an organic look that is a cross between modern cool and technically precise aesthetics and vintage cinema lenses.
• Coated optics helps provide natural looking contrast while helping to control hazy glare and specular highlights, preventing glare from fading the image.
• The 16-blade diaphragm creates natural looking bokeh and creates blurry, rounded lights.
• The modern mechanical design allows each lens to be small in size and light in weight, while sharing the same 80mm front diameter and common gear positions for quick lens changes.
• The rear of the lens has a magnetically attached rear filter that accepts optional ND filters that allow you to control exposure without affecting the aperture setting or changing the depth of field.
• The front of the lens has a 77mm filter thread, allowing you to use optional filters directly on the lens, useful when filtration is needed when shooting without a matte.
• A minimum focusing distance of 12 "allows you to get closer to the subject.
