Lens Overview — CHIOPT 28-85mm and 75-250mm T3.2

The CHIOPT Extreme Zoom Lens Bundle brings together two cinema zoom lenses — a 28-85mm and a 75-250mm — both sharing a consistent T3.2 aperture and PL Mount compatibility. Designed for the Super 35 cinema camera system, this bundle covers a broad focal length range from 28mm to 250mm, making it a practical solution for productions that need flexibility across wide, standard, and telephoto perspectives without swapping between vastly different lens families. Both lenses are manually focused, which aligns with professional cinema workflows where precise, repeatable focus pulls are handled by dedicated focus operators using follow focus systems.

The PL Mount is a widely adopted standard in professional cinema production, ensuring compatibility with a broad range of cinema cameras built around that mount system. With a combined weight of 2,903g for the bundle, operators should account for appropriate rig and support configurations. There is no image stabilization on either lens, which is standard practice for cinema lenses intended for use on stabilized rigs or gimbals.

The consistent T3.2 maximum aperture across both zoom ranges allows for predictable exposure matching when transitioning between the two lenses on set.

Description — CHIOPT 28-85mm and 75-250mm T3.2

The CHIOPT Extreme Zoom Lens Bundle pairs a 28-85mm and a 75-250mm cinema zoom lens, both rated at a matched T3.2 maximum aperture. Mounted in the industry-standard PL Mount, these lenses are built for the Cinema/Video camera system and cover a Super 35 image format. The combined focal range spans 28mm to 250mm, offering coverage from wide-angle through substantial telephoto reach within a two-lens kit.

Both lenses are manual focus only, in keeping with professional cinema production norms where focus pullers use calibrated follow focus systems for precise control. With no image stabilization, these lenses are intended for use on stabilized rigs or gimbals as part of a broader production setup. The total bundle weight comes in at 2,903g, so proper rigging and camera support planning is essential.

The consistent T3.2 aperture across both lenses is a meaningful practical advantage, ensuring that lighting setups and exposure settings remain matched when the production transitions between the two focal ranges.
