ZEISS CP.3 25mm T2.1 Cinema Lens

The ZEISS CP.3 25mm T2.1 is a prime cinema lens designed for full-frame coverage, offered here in PL Mount configuration. Built for the Cinema/Video camera system, this manual-focus lens sits in the standard focal length range, making it a versatile choice for narrative filmmaking, documentary work, and commercial production. With a maximum aperture of T2.1, it provides solid light-gathering capability for controlled or low-light environments.

The lens features a 95mm front filter thread, which is consistent across the CP.3 lineup — a practical advantage when sharing filters across multiple focal lengths in a matched set. Weighing in at 1000g, it strikes a balance between build quality and portability for a cinema-grade optic. The PL Mount is a widely adopted standard in the professional cinema world, making this lens compatible with a broad range of cinema cameras.

Image stabilization is not present, which is standard practice for cinema lenses intended for use on stabilized rigs or gimbals. Focus is entirely manual, as expected for a lens designed for professional cinema production where precise, repeatable focus pulls are essential. The CP.3 25mm T2.1 represents a compelling option for cinematographers seeking a full-frame prime at a standard focal length.
