Super wide on 6k FF Dragon

[Marcus Friedlander]

What is the widest lens that fully covers 6k Dragon? In the cinema lens world I think its either the Zeiss 15mm CP.2 or the Zeiss 15-30 CZ.2, right?

Is there a photo lens that can cover 6k at an even wider focal length?

I'm curious to see how wide it is physically possible to get on 6k FF as it would be a big help for nature, doc, or event work.



Thanks in advance for the help!

What mount are you using. If you really wanted to go wider, had an m mount, and are ok with shooting black and white you could use this lens: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/search?atclk=Focal+Length_12mm&ci=8423&N=4288584243+4110135968

Thanks for the reply!

The ruby looks like a cheaper competitor to the CZ.2 I'll definitely have to test the two against each other to see if it is worth the price difference.

That last lens that you posted looks really interesting. I wasn't planning on buying an M mount but this lens might change my mind. But why do you have to shoot in black and white?

A bit pricy, though

 

[Ryan Hamblin]

In EF mount. Rokinon has both a 12mm and 14mm that cover full frame

 

[Gavin Greenwalt]

The Tokina 11-16 covers about 13-16 at 6k.

Arri's new super wide zoom is as good as it gets and covers 6k..

shot with it 2weeks ago and was very impressed..

 

[Paul E. McCarthy]

I just shot 6kWS and the 18mm Master Prime didn't cover it.

And it covers 6k FF? Wow that's probably going to be the best choice then.

Good to know!

Yes, the Tokina 11-16mm is nice and more than covers, and the Duclos PL rehouse of it is superb.

I have the Duclos lens and love it... That said the new ARRI lens blows it away. Bigger coverage, no breathing, better image , higher Rez and much wider FOV... it is def a hire lens rather than a buy on a whim lens (like the duclos)

 

[Craig Lees]

Anyone tried the sigma art 18-35? (it's not FF35 so I don't think it will at its widest)

My Dragon is being upgraded in the US and counting the days 'til I can try this out.

Cheers

if youre fine with a tiny bit of vignetting i shot on the 14mm master prime a few days ago and had no problems.

 

[Brian Merlen]

i think that master zoom is good as it gets on the high end...

 

[Marcus Friedlander]

I think I'm going to buy the duclos 11-16 and then when I really need to blow people away with wides I'll rent either the arri uwz or the master zoom. Thanks for your help everyone!

Personally I'm excited about/waiting for the release of this lens: http://www.dpreview.com/articles/90...-30-ultra-wide-zoom-with-vibration-correction

I'm not sure I know of another wide zoom that covers FF, 2.8 through the whole range, and includes IS.

Hearing a few good things so far. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlwKq8fiBJE

I can confirm that the Arri super wide zoom covers, and that it is a crazy crazy lens. Super impressive
