The lenses cover full-frame sensors, but even the widest 18mm model can capture a wide angle of view on a Super 35 camera. They can also pass native metadata and eXtended Data to the camera, recording lens type, focus distance, iris, focal length, distortion, and vignetting, which are essential in systems like CinCraft Mapper for post-production or CinCraft Scenario for VFX productions.
