Lights, camera, action! If you’re a documentary filmmaker, you know that having the right equipment is essential to capturing the perfect shot. That’s where Angenieux’s EZ Series zoom lenses come in. Loaded with features that seem tailor-made for documentary filmmakers, the EZ-1 and EZ-2 lenses just might be a dream combination.
Thanks to their full-frame capabilities, optical sharpness, and high image quality, the Angenieux Type EZ Series zoom lenses are highly regarded among cinematographers everywhere. But for documentary filmmakers specifically, the EZ Series has an enormous focal range across the two-lens set that offers nearly the entire focal range — from 15mm all the way up to 90mm. This is especially important for run-and-gun shoots where it’s essential to be able to quickly change focal length without changing glass.
But that’s not all. The EZ Series also offers interchangeable rear mounts, making it easy to switch from an S35 mount to a full-frame mount. And with Angenieux’s reputation for exceptional image quality and sharpness, you can be sure that your footage will look stunning.
Of course, all this quality comes at a price. Angenieux glass is expensive, with the lowest cost lenses starting at over $10,000. But for documentary filmmakers on a budget, rental is always a solid option.
So if you’re looking to take your documentary filmmaking to the next level, consider investing in Angenieux’s EZ Series zoom lenses. And while you’re at it, check out these other video gear resources handpicked with your documentary workflow in mind.
