Four aspherical elements into its construction as well as five Special Low Dispersion (SLD) glass elements to help minimize various aberrations and distortions throughout the zoom range as well as provide greater image sharpness and clarity. A Super Multi-Layer Coating has also been applied to lens elements to reduce surface reflections, lens flare, and ghosting to produce images with higher contrast and color fidelity.

CANON L SERIES (I) EF PRIMES & ZOOMS

Marked by the tell-tale red band around the barrel of each lens, Canon’s professional L-series is renowned for its exceptional mastery over mechanical and optical design. These lenses are tough, many with rubber weather seals in place to prevent contamination from dust, dirt, or moisture. They each contain a combination of ultra or super low-dispersion glass, as well as fluorite and aspheric elements. In addition to effectively reducing unintentional distortions such as blur, haze, and chromatic aberration, these high-quality elements expertly render accurate color detail and contrast. Non-rotating front elements make it easier to adjust and use circular polarizer filters, for optimal results. Most implement a ring-type ultrasonic motor, which makes autofocus smooth and lightning fast. It also gives you the option of full-time manual focusing, which means you can still adjust manually without needing to switch out of AF mode. Superior optics make for an overall faster, sharper lens that simply outperforms many outside of the L series.

AUDIO

A NOTE ABOUT SOUND

​

While we do offer sound equipment (limited and mostly of the ENG/EPK/Documentary variety), we STRONGLY recommend you hire professional techs and mixers for your production. Audio quality can make or break a shoot. Don't skimp here. We actually don't want to rent you any of this stuff. You really should hire a pro. We like Stickman Sound.

TASCAM 680MKII

Digital deck recorder with 4-inputs, line adjustable, automatic file organization, tagging, playback, battery and AC powered. Cheap, clean sound. Probably. Sounds alright to us. But remember; We are a camera and technology house. Hire a sound guy.

• Canon Bluetooth Microphone Transmitter + receiver
