Laowa 17-50mm T2.9 Ranger S35 PL Cine Lens

Laowa Ranger S35 17-50mm T2.9 Compact Cine Zoom Lens PL LWARAN1750S35PL

The Laowa Ranger S35 Compact Cine Zoom series comprises the 11-18mm, 17-50mm and 50-130mm, all with a constant T2.9 aperture and together covering a zoom range of more than 11x. The lenses weigh about 745 g (11-18mm), 865 g (17-50mm) and 760 g (50-130mm). The compact size suits one-man-band productions and moving shots: handheld, gimbal and even FPV drones.

The parfocal optical design keeps the subject in focus while zooming in or out, focus breathing is almost invisible and close focusing distances (36 cm, 35 cm and 75 cm across the series) allow detailed close-ups. The professional cine housing has focus and aperture rings in the same position on every Ranger S35 lens, so lenses can be swapped without moving the follow focus, 0.8 mod gears on both rings, engraved metric and imperial scales, an 80 mm front diameter and a 77 mm filter thread for common matte boxes and filters.

Each lens has a native PL mount; interchangeable mounts for Canon EF, Canon RF, Sony E, Nikon Z, L-Mount and Fujifilm X are available separately.
