Canon CN-E Primes

Thanks to its 4K optical ability, Canon's legendary EF mount and widespread camera compatibility, these lenses will appeal to a wide range of demanding filmmakers looking for speed as well as lightness. From documentary and broadcast professionals to movie and commercial directors, this lens fits neatly into Canon's range of Cinema primes.

Each lens features an 11-bladed iris which provides rounded, out-of-focus highlights for a more natural-looking image and consistency when switching focal lengths. The lenses incorporate dual focus markings on each side of the barrel, making it easier to read lens markings from either side of the camera. The lenses all share a consistent form factor, the same 114mm front barrel diameter, gear position, and rotation angle across the family of CN-E prime lenses, minimizing differences as you switch lenses during your shoot day.

The lens is designed to minimize focus breathing and also has innovative glass construction that counteracts barrel expansion and contraction to avoid temperature-induced marking discrepancies. It has focus distance markings on both sides of the barrel, with the rear markings on an angled surface, making it readable from either side of the camera. It also has a dust and water resistant housing to minimize maintenance.
