The EF-mountCanon CN-E 70-200mm T4.4 Compact-Servo Cine Zoom Lens with Serial Portprovides 4K and HDR–compatible imaging for Super 35-sensor digital cinema cameras. This compact, lightweight zoom offers coverage in the commonly used 70-200mm range. Its range can be further expanded using the optional Canon EF 1.4x III and 2x extenders (available separately). This parfocal cine lens maintains focus while zooming and has a constant maximum iris of T4.4 across its zoom range. Its color characteristics match those of existing Canon cinema lenses, making for smooth intercutting. Another cinematic feature of this zoom is its nine-bladed iris which can be used to produce attractive bokeh (out-of-focus highlights) effects.

The built-in RS-422 port allows for lens control, allowing you to configure your camera with this lens as a PTZ system. It is also well suited for remote operation such as when on a jib or crane. This functionality makes it particularly useful in houses of worship, concerts, and live productions wanting to get the cinematic look of this lens while maintaining remote control capabilities. At just over seven inches in length and weighing under three pounds, the 70-200mm Compact-Servo Cine Zoom offers portability combined with a versatile focal length range and high optical performance.
