Lens Overview — DJI 17-28mm T3.0 ASPH PZ

The DJI 17-28mm T3.0 ASPH PZ Cinema Lens is a wide-angle zoom lens designed for the cinema and video camera system, covering a focal length range of 17mm to 28mm. Built around the DJI DL mount, it is purpose-built for Super 35 format sensors and targets cinematographers working in professional cine environments. The lens operates at a maximum aperture of T3.0, providing a consistent T-stop across the zoom range — a critical characteristic for video work where exposure consistency during zoom changes matters.

With a zoom range classified as wide angle, the 17-28mm focal length span is well-suited for establishing shots, documentary coverage, and environments where a compact wide-angle zoom is preferred over prime swapping. The lens supports both autofocus and manual focus operation, giving operators flexibility depending on the shooting scenario. A powered zoom motor is integrated into the design, enabling smooth, motorized focal length adjustments rather than relying on manual zoom throws.

The lens weighs 0.5kg and accepts 67mm filter thread accessories. The cine-type designation and Super 35 format coverage place this lens firmly in the professional video production segment, compatible with the DJI DL mount ecosystem.
