This is critical for cinema work - it means your focus puller doesn't need to constantly readjust focus as the camera operator zooms. Many consumer zoom lenses are \"varifocal\" and shift focus when zoomed, which is unacceptable on a professional set. The Xtreme Zoom 16-35mm's parfocal design is a key reason it's trusted for high-end productions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eCan I mix the 16-35mm with other Xtreme Zoom lenses from Chiopt?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-content\"\u003eYes - the Xtreme Zoom series (16-35mm, 28-85mm, and 75-250mm) is specifically designed to be color- and weight-matched.

It will cover super-35 sensors with plenty of room to spare. It is a spherical (non-anamorphic) lens, so it is not intended for use as an anamorphic optic, though it can be paired with anamorphic adapters in some setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eAre the EF and E mount adapters included?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-content\"\u003eNo - the lens ships with a PL mount installed.
