Movietech Adds Fujinon Lenses

Movietech has announced the addition of the 4K Fujinon HK Premier Zoom Series Lenses to their rental stock. It is one of the first companies in the UK to offer the new ultra high definition lenses.

The new generation lenses have been developed to deliver optimum optical performance and provide the best possible image capture experience to cinematographers using high resolution digital cameras.

With optical balance and zoom mechanisms that actively suppresses aberration between wide and tele settings, the Fujifilm-developed lenses offer high levels of definition throughout the zoom range, which in certain instances issue a direct challenge to the need for multiple primes.

The glass features a multi-layer coating to reduce flare and ghosting, delivering contrasted 4K resolution and helping maintain colour balance between lenses; but it's not all about digital, for further flexibility, the lenses can also be used when shooting film.

Discussing the new lenses, Movietech Managing Director John Buckley said: "It's important to introduce new products that give Cinematographers greater choice and challenge the range of tools currently available – our new Fujinons do both."

Movietech have reported that demand is high for the lenses, with DoP Tobias A. Schliessler ASC taking instant delivery of the company's premier set for use on Beauty and the Beast, currently shooting at Shepperton Studios.
