Zeiss Super Speeds have been an industry workhorse for decades. Attractive to camera assistants, the Mark II series improves on previous housings with larger, more legible focus marks. Their T1.3 aperture allows for maximum lowlight capability as well as producing a very shallow depth of field. Sharp, contrasty, and very bright, these lenses continue to be a staple in the cinematographer’s toolkit, contained in a lightweight package, and remain popular for all types of production.
