New Zealand’s Zeiss CP.3 Lens Line Unveiled at NAB 2018

Attention all filmmakers! Zeiss has just released their updated CP.3 lens line at NAB 2018, and it’s full frame and metadata-rich. That’s right, the much-anticipated “XD” version is finally here, offering greater compatibility with full-frame cameras and real-time metadata on lens distortion and shading characteristics. You can even monitor and share this data with pre-vis modified images for search functions and data wrangling. The new CP.3s are definitely worth the investment, but if you’re not ready to commit, rental packages are available.
