ZEISS Super Speed lenses are classic, high-performance cinema primes known for their exceptionally fast apertures (T1.3), compact build, and signature vintage look. Originally developed in the late 1970s and widely used throughout the film industry, they deliver smooth focus falloff, gentle contrast, and pleasing bokeh—making them a favorite for narrative filmmaking that aims for a warm, cinematic aesthetic.
Key Features:
Ultra-Fast Maximum Aperture (T1.3/T1.4): Provides exceptional low-light performance and shooting flexibility in dim conditions without excessive camera ISO.
Shallow Depth of Field: Allows for a pronounced cinematic look with beautiful, selective focus and bokeh (the pleasing blur of out-of-focus areas).
Compact and Lightweight Design: Ideal for demanding shooting scenarios like handheld, Steadicam, and gimbal work, offering excellent portability.
High Contrast and Vintage Aesthetic: Known for a high-contrast, slightly cool color rendition that produces a filmic look; wide-open use can add a desirable, softer “glow” to highlights.
Minimal Focus Breathing: Ensures the image framing remains relatively consistent when adjusting focus, which is highly valued in professional film work.
Consistent T-Stop: Most lenses in a set maintain a uniform T1.3 aperture, simplifying exposure consistency during lens changes.
