Canon Cine-Servo 17-120mm T2.95-3.9 Zoom Lens with SS-41-IASD Full-Servo Kit (Canon RF)

Canon Cine-Servo eX-s 17-120mm T2.95 Overview

Canon Cine-Servo 17-120mm T2.95-3.9 Lens (Canon RF)

The RF-mount Cine-Servo 17-120mm T2.95-3.9 Lens from Canon is designed to combine the functionality and form factor of a broadcast, ENG-style motorized zoom lens with the optical precision of a cinema zoom. The lens is designed with a native RF mount for use on cinema cameras such as the EOS C400 and covers sensors up to Super35, and it is suitable for 8K/4K acquisition.

Quick Features

• Versatile 17-120mm focal length with 7x zoom ratio
• Supports 8K/4K cameras such as EOS C400
• Detachable next-generation eX-s V servo drive unit
• Supports virtual production with ZEISS eXtended data and Cooke /i technology
• 11-blade iris for soft bokeh
• 127mm filter diameter on hood 112mm diameter on lens
• 114mm front diameter
• Supports ARIA (Automatic Restoration of Illumination Attenuation) with compatible cameras

Versatile Optical Performance

This servo zoom lens is designed with a consistently warm color balance that reproduces skin tones and works with HDR video. The 11-blade iris offers a natural, circular bokeh from fully open to minimum aperture. The odd number of iris blades produces a soft and diffused light beam when shooting bright subjects.

Support for 8K/4K Cameras

Canon's optical technology uses large-diameter aspherical lenses and anomalous dispersion glass to deliver optical performance that supports 4K and 8K cameras throughout the zoom range. Aberrations are controlled from edge to edge for clean image performance.

Next-Generation e-Xs V Servo Drive Unit

The next-generation servo e-Xs V drive unit on this lens has the same operability and usability as ENG lenses, adding faster focus and iris speed, Focus Breathing Compensation, and a USB-C connector. The USB-C port allows drive unit settings to be saved and loaded into other lenses. Also, users can record and save maintenance history. Three 20-pin connectors below the servo housing allow many Canon and third-party zoom, focus, and iris controllers to be connected. The drive unit can also be detached to be used in manual-style cinema configurations.

Remote and Virtual Support

The high-resolution, 16-bit absolute-value encoder enables high-precision location detection, making calibration easier when creating virtual content. The 20-pin connector can be switched to a virtual terminal to output zoom, focus, and iris position information.

This lens also supports RF-mount communication, which provides distortion and shading data for virtual production with compatible cameras. In addition to RF mount communication, 12-pin serial communication for standard broadcast camera systems is available.

Supports AF Functions

This RF-mount lens supports Dual-Pixel CMOS AF II with an expanded distance measuring area to significantly reduce focus problems in 4K shooting. This function can be used when combined with compatible cameras such as the EOS C400.

Canon FPD-400D Digital Focus Servo Demand for Canon Lens Control Kits

The Canon FPD-400D is a digital focus servo demand designed for Canon lens controller kits, including the SS-41-20D, SS-42-20D, SS-41-IASD, and SS-42-IASD. Compatible with both A- and R-type lenses, this controller provides precision focus control for a variety of professional broadcast applications, including live event coverage and sports. The FPD-400D demand includes a pan-bar clamp mount but requires a separate cable for both A- and R-type lenses and a servo module for R-type lenses.

Canon Compatibility

• Lens controller kits.
• A-type broadcast lenses.
• R-type broadcast lenses.

Focus Functions

• Direction switch that can be used with both A- and R-type lenses.
• Line/curve selector for both A- and R-type lenses.
• Standard/far focus switch that is compatible only with R-type lenses.

Canon ZSD-300D Digital Zoom Servo Demand for Digital ENG/EFP Lenses

The Canon ZSD-300D is a digital zoom servo demand for canon lens controller kits. The controller provides precision zoom capability in a handlebar style controller and is useful in a variety of professional broadcast applications, including live event coverage and sports.
