ZEISS SUPER SPEED MARK II SET OF 5

The ZEISS Super Speed Mark II lenses are a set of classic, high-speed prime lenses widely used in professional cinema and filmmaking. Despite the unofficial “Super Speed” moniker given by cinematographers, they are renowned for their exceptional light-gathering capability and distinctive vintage aesthetic.

Key Features

Ultra-Fast Aperture (T1.3): Enables excellent low-light performance and a beautifully shallow depth of field, giving directors and DPs strong creative control over focus and exposure.
Consistent Optical and Mechanical Design: Uniform front diameter (80 mm) and consistent gear positions for focus and iris across the lens set make lens changes fast and easy during shoots.
Cinematic Look & Character: Offers a subtle vintage aesthetic with moderate contrast, warm color tones, and pleasing fall-off — ideal for narrative and commercial work that seeks texture over clinical sharpness.
High Optical Quality: Delivers solid resolution even wide open, with smooth focus roll-off and minimal breathing, maintaining ZEISS’s reputation for reliability and image precision.
Compact & Lightweight Build: Smaller and lighter than many modern primes, which is advantageous for handheld, gimbal, or Steadicam setups.
Super 35 Sensor Coverage: Designed for Super 35 film frames, but also performs well on many modern digital sensors with minimal vignetting.
Professional Cinema Mechanics: PL mount standard, geared focus and iris rings, and dual-scale (metric/imperial) markings for professional use on set.
Durable All-Metal Construction: Engineered for demanding production environments, ensuring longevity and reliable performance over time.
