Canon’s new cine glass is versatile enough for creatives that need to adapt.
It only felt like a few years ago that the Super 35 format was slowly being replaced by full-frame. But with the release of the ARRI Alexa 35, RED Komodo, and the killer Fujifilm X-H2S, it’s now more popular than ever.
This is why lens manufacturers have been quick to support the new capture systems with new lenses.
With the new Canon CN-E Flex Zoom 14-35mm T1.7 and CN-E Flex Zoom 31.5-95mm T1.7, Super 35 shooters get another option. But is it an option those shooters should consider?
Canon Super 35 Flex Zooms
An extension of the full-frame Flex Zooms, both of the new additions are killer pieces of glass building upon Canon’s long history. Each one is available in either PL or EF mount (a lens mount that likely won’t die anytime soon), and can be swapped between the two by a local lens shop.
There are 11-iris blades that give creatives a constant aperture of T1.7 for both lenses, making them blazing fast when used on Super 35 productions.
