SIGMA Cine Zooms Make Debut in Short Film
Back at IBC 2016 earlier this year, Sigma announced their first ever cine lenses - the High Speed Cine zoom 18-35mm T2 and 50-100mm T2 cine zooms based on their renowned Art series optics. In addition to the high speed zooms, Sigma also announced a line of Cine primes covering full-frame 35mm sensors and ranging from 20mm T1.5 to 85mm T1.5.
Although, we still don't have UK pricing, Sigma have announced their two high speed zoom lenses will sell initially for $3,999 in North America and start shipping in the first part of December.
Given the popularity of the underlying Art series stills lenses among video producers and cinematographers, the Sigma cine primes and zoom range are on the shopping list of many.
If you are wondering what kind of images these lenses can produce, check out this official short film shot on the Sigma high speed cine zooms.
The new 18-35mm T2 and 50-100mm T2 high speed cine zooms offer 100% new mechanical lens body design, as well as the ability to resolve 6K and even 8K produced by the latest RED Digital Cinema cameras. With their Super 35 sensor coverage, both cine zooms will be perfect on Super 35 cameras like the Sony FS7, Varicam LT and Canon C300 Mark II.
The stills counterparts of these zoom lenses have been receiving raving reviews among the photographic community and have also been widely adopted by cinematographers.
And now with a proper cine housing, distance scales, focus and aperture mechanical rings, the new High Speed Cine Zooms are bound to find a home in plenty of cinematographers' kit bags and rental houses around the world.
