Because of its aspherical front element, the Ultra Prime 8R
has both a high optical quality and substantially reduced size
and weight. In fact, the Ultra Prime 8R weighs only 2/3rds of
the weight of the Ultra Prime 10 mm. Its size is revolutionary
for an 8 mm lens, being smaller than the 10 or 12 mm Ultra
Primes. This small size can speed up work on the set, as it
gives the cinematographer ample room to place lights when
working close to the actors. Additionally, it can be used in
unusual places and allows the lens to skim past objects that
are very close to the optical axis, creating shots never before
possible.
The Ultra Prime 8R is Super Color Matched to the other
Ultra Primes, to guarantee seamless cuts between scenes
and to avoid time-consuming color matching in post. For
quick and easy use on the set, it has focus and iris rings in
the same position as the other Ultra Primes. It also shares the
same robust and reliable construction that is appreciated by
rental houses and customers worldwide, since it minimizes
downtime.
The Ultra Prime 8R extends the range of Ultra Prime lenses at
the extreme wide end. Together with the 10, 12, 14 and 16 mm
Ultra Primes, these lenses provide the most complete wide
angle selection in any modern prime lens set. The Ultra Primes
offer 16 different focal lengths for every cinematic need,
from the best telephoto lens designed specifically for motion
pictures, the Ultra Prime 180 mm, to the new Ultra Prime 8R,
giving you the flexibility to get the coverage you want.
