Canon expands on its huge presence in ultra tele portable SD shooting with two new highly anticipated lenses at NAB 2004. The J35ex11B IASD & J35ex15B IASD are the most telephoto portable SDTV lenses available, bringing major creative options to news and sports production, stabilized helicopter systems, and much more. The focal length for the J35ex11B is 11~385 mm, or 22~770mm with 2X extender, while the focal length for the J35ex15B is 15~525mm, achieving 1050 with 2X extender. This compact, lightweight pair replaces Canon’s extremely popular J33ax11B and J33ax15B lenses that have become a staple throughout the broadcast production community. Top optical performance comes through Canon’s IFxs system, and the precise tools that come with the latest generation of Digital Drive. Canon’s ecological design, with such non-polluting measures as lead-free glass, is also incorporated.
Digital Drive Unit
The newly developed Digital Drive system provides many outstanding features.
Shuttle Shot
By memorizing any two focal lengths, the Digital Drive can automatically "Shuttle"
between the two points, moving in either direction.
Framing Preset
An angle of view can be present in memory and the lens will zoom to that
position by pushing a simple button. During a performance, framing preset will
reproduce the zoom position decided upon at the rehearsal. It's easy to repeat the same
zoom as often as you like at the highest speed or in a preset zoom speed.
Speed Preset
A specific zoom speed can be preset in memory and it is possible to repeat the
zoom speed as often as you like by pushing a simple button.
Zoom mode select
One of several selectable operation curves can be chosen which will allow different
zoom movement characteristics when operating the rocker switch.
New digital demands series
In addition, Canon is introducing a new Digital Zoom Demand, the ZSD-300D.
The new demand will be able to operate the shuttle shot (Shtl) and Frame Preset
(Frame) functions. The ZSD-300D will be connected to the lens via a new one-touch 20pin connector. All current analog controllers are fully compatible with Digital Drive lenses.
