Description — Zeiss 25mm T1.5 PL
The ZEISS Supreme Prime 25mm T1.5 is a professional cinema lens built around the PL Mount and designed to cover full-frame sensor formats. With a maximum aperture of T1.5, the lens is capable of performing in low-light environments and gives cinematographers meaningful control over depth of field rendering. Operating as a prime lens at a fixed 25mm focal length, it provides a dedicated wide-angle perspective that suits a variety of cinematic applications, from sweeping establishing shots to intimate close-environment sequences.
The lens is manual focus only, which aligns with standard professional cinema workflow where focus control is managed by dedicated focus pullers using calibrated, repeatable adjustments. A 95mm filter thread ensures compatibility with professional matte box systems, while the 1420g weight keeps it manageable across a range of rig configurations. Classified under the Cinema / Video camera system category, the Supreme Prime 25mm T1.5 is built for demanding production environments where consistency, optical performance, and integration with professional cinema infrastructure are non-negotiable priorities.
