4K-Ready. Based around the popular Canon 85mm f/1.2L. the CN-E 85mm offers extremely sharp optics in a traditional video-lens housing. It features upgraded optics and coatings that have been optimized for cinema use, with resolving power all the way up to 4K. The 11-blade stepless aperture diaphragm accommodates minute exposure adjustments with pleasing bokeh and out-of-focus highlights.

Geared Rings. Both focus and aperture rings are geared, allowing the use of any standard follow focus, with easily visible markings for controlling focus and aperture from behind the camera. It offers a focus-rotation angle of approximately 300 degrees, allowing for long focus throws.

Canon EF Mount. Its standard Canon EF mount makes the CN-E 85mm compatible with a wide variety of cameras from the EOS C200 EF and C300 Mark II EF to full-frame Canon DSLRs like the EOS 5D Mark IV and 1DX Mark II.
