The Canon CINE-SERVO 11-55mm Compact-Servo Cine Zoom Lens (ARRI PL) delivers 8K and HDR-ready performance for Super 35 and full-frame cinema cameras. Its 11-55mm range and fast T2.95 aperture natively support Super 35, while a built-in 1.5x extender expands coverage to full-frame, extending the focal length to 16.5-82.5mm at T4.4.
Engineered for cinematic consistency, the lens offers warm color reproduction with accurate skin tones, along with an upgraded V Drive unit for faster, smoother focus and iris control. The PL-mount version ensures broad compatibility with professional cinema camera systems, making it a versatile choice for high-end productions.
Minimum Focus Distance
The 11-55mm lens can focus on objects 2' or farther away, making it ideal for mounting onto jibs, tripods, or for use in handheld shooting applications.
8K and HDR Image Support
Large-diameter aspherical lens elements and anomalous dispersion glass ensure the lens can support 8K cameras throughout its zoom range. Chromatic aberrations are controlled from the center to the edge of the image to reduce color bleeding. Internal light-shielding and coating optimization reduce ghosting and flaring.
Reduced Focus Breathing
The CINE-SERVO's optical design reduces focus breathing so your angle of view remains consistent even when actively focusing, zooming, and framing your shots.
Upgraded V Drive Unit
Inspired by broadcast zoom lenses, the CINE-SERVO's V Drive unit features focus breathing correction and improved servo performance. An integrated information display and USB-C terminal facilitate easy setup and maintenance of your equipment. Three Hirose 20-pin ports power the drive while enabling remote iris control, as well as support for Cooke/i Technology and ZEISS eXtended Data. The lens supports 12-pin serial communication for standard broadcast systems. A 16-bit value encoder expands your imaging capabilities by communicating accurate positional information. This makes calibration even easier during compositing in post.
11-Blade Iris
An 11-blade iris creates a natural, circular bokeh throughout the aperture range up to T2.95. The odd number of blades creates a soft glow without any overlapping.
ARIA and ALAC Compatible
The lens features ARIA (Automatic Restoration of Illumination Attenuation) and ALAC (Automatic Lens Aberration Compensation) compatibility. ARIA enhances illumination performance, and ALAC provides correction with compatible camera models.
