Canon KH10eX3.6 IRSE SX12 1/2" HD Lens, w. Hood and Lens Cap

The Canon HDgc KH10ex3.6-IRSE is a 10x ultra-wide angle lens designed for 1/2" CCD XDCAM HD cameras. As HDTV becomes the standard for television broadcasts, more production facilities are looking to originate projects in high definition. A variety of formats have been introduced to fill the gap, including both HDV and XDCAM HD.

Sony’s line of XDCAM HD cameras provides a low-cost alternative to the higher priced 2/3" cameras, while still maintaining a familiar ENG/EFP workflow. This lens provides high definition optics which can fully realize the capabilities of high definition, while still being cost effective for lower budget productions.

The KH10ex3.6-IRSE is the widest-angle HDgc lens available and strikes a perfect balance between performance and portability, equipped with features such as internal focus and shuttle-shot programmable positioning. The focal-length range is 3.6 to 36mm with a minimum object distance of 0.56 meters (1.8 feet) and comes with a 2x extender for increased telephoto capability
