Relatively small and lightweight and with an added data interface, the DZOFilm VESPID Cyber Full Frame 50mm T2.1 Prime Lens is part of the VESPID series of lenses and well suited for independent and high-end full frame cinematography. The Cyber part of its data connection passes aperture and focus data to assist with VFX and post-production workflows. The lens has a 95mm front diameter, allowing it to work with virtually any cine-style matte box, and it matches the other VESPID Cyber lenses. The small size makes this lens an attractive option when working with drones and gimbals, as well as when shooting handheld or run-and-gun. Sporting interchangeable lens mounts, this fully manual lens works with cameras having PL or EF mounts. The full frame lens coverage supports sensors with an image circle up to 46.5mm for use on cameras with sensors up to full frame without any vignetting.
The 16-blade iris, consistent throughout the VESPID and VESPID Cyber prime lens lineups, creates round out-of-focus highlights that have a more natural appearance and contribute to the lens’s natural-looking bokeh. The focus ring features 270° of rotation for precise focus pulls, and the iris ring a generous 58° of rotation. Cine-style gear rings on the focus and iris rings make the lens compatible with cine-style lens accessories such as follow focus units, lens motors, and lens control systems.
