FUJINON<br />
ENG CAMERA LENSES<br />
While ENG camera technology evolves faster and faster, delivering ever higher performance<br />
in ever small bodies, it has been increasingly difficult for lens manufacturers<br />
to improve quality while keeping size and weight to a minimum....<br />
until recently. With At2 Aspheric Technology, Fujinon has succeeded<br />
in manufacturing superior quality lenses that are both<br />
smaller and lighter than lenses of conventional spherical<br />
design. From the widest angle to the longest telephoto,<br />
Fujinon’s broadcast hand-held style lenses offer unparalleled<br />
features and performance. In fact, they are so advanced and<br />
so optically superb, they will reshape your thinking about<br />
how well a lens can perform.<br />
FEATURES<br />
Aspheric Lens Technology<br />
■ Conventional lenses use multiple spherical<br />
elements to control spherical and<br />
chromatic aberrations, glare and reflections.<br />
In AT-equipped lenses, a single<br />
aspheric element reduces these undesirable<br />
characteristics — and far better than<br />
multiple spherical lenses achieve.<br />
■ Aspherical optics allow zoom lenses to be<br />
made with higher magnification, wider<br />
angles and shorter MOD.<br />
■ One aspheric element replaces three<br />
spherical elements, reducing the number<br />
of elements by 20%, allowing production<br />
of smaller and lighter zoom lenses.<br />
■ Aspherical lenses have reduced distortion<br />
at wide angles and have improved corner<br />
resolution that can be managed throughout<br />
the zoom range, rather than just optimized<br />
at specific points.<br />
Light rays passing through the center of a spherical element focus<br />
on a different point than the rays that pass through the periphery.<br />
This creates a phenomenon known as spherical aberration – requiring<br />
additional elements to correct – adding weight and bulk, and<br />
increasing the potential for distortion, ghosting and flare.<br />
Shortest MOD<br />
■ Using Fujinon’s patented aspheric technology<br />
with a new inner focusing system,<br />
they reduce the minimum object distance<br />
MOD of each lens.<br />
■ The inner focusing system also gives the<br />
added convenience of not having to readjust<br />
filters after focusing.<br />
“V”-Grip<br />
■ The most comfortable and versatile handgrip<br />
ever devised, the V-Grip keeps you in<br />
control, no matter what your shooting<br />
environment. The exclusive “V”-grip<br />
offers exceptional comfort by allowing the<br />
servo angle to be adjusted in five positions,<br />
from 3° to 17°. Balance any load,<br />
from lightweight camera/lens combinations<br />
to heavy camcorders.<br />
ASPHERIC ELEMENTS GAIN THEIR ADVANTAGES<br />
FROM THE WAY LIGHT PASSES THROUGH THEM<br />

Quick Zoom<br />
■ Fujinon takes the guesswork out of<br />
returning precisely to your original<br />
framed shot. You focus and the exclusive<br />
Quick Zoom has the lens zoom back to<br />
the original frame in full focus, at the<br />
touch of a button.<br />
■ Adjustable zoom speed control is selectable<br />
from 5 seconds to an incredible 1<br />
second, wide-to-tele, right from the grip.<br />
Conveniences<br />
■ Each lens barrel has a special protein<br />
coating applied to it, giving you solid finger<br />
contact, even while wet. Incredibly,<br />
even the zoom rocker switch is designed<br />
to carry off water collected in a special<br />
well below the switch.<br />
■ Lenses include a rectangular lens hood<br />
that provides a drastic reduction in flare.<br />
Aspheric lenses, on the other hand, are designed so that all the<br />
light rays focus at the same point. This design reduces spherical<br />
aberration, thus eliminating the need for additional corrective<br />
elements and the added weight.
