Description
The Angenieux Optimo 28-76mm T2.6 is a lightweight, fast PL-mount zoom for Super 35 sensors, with the rear assembly swappable to Panavision or Canon EF mount.
Optics
Focus reaches 60cm at a T2.6 maximum aperture, losing only 1/10 of a stop internally. That aperture on Super 35 matches many standard primes, allowing lower lighting levels than most zooms need — useful when moving between primes and zooms on the same set without relighting.
Build
At 1.9kg, independent focus, iris and zoom rings use industry-standard 0.8 gear teeth, and a 114mm front diameter shares matte boxes with the rest of the Optimo range. The lens compensates for temperature drift, reducing the need to re-collimate.
