Combined with the separately available Proteus 45-85mm zoom, the two lenses provide a versatile wide range of 26-85mm and a zoom ratio of 3.27x.

Compact design

The Proteus 26-45mm lens measures only 7.46" long and weighs about 3.3 lbs, providing a compact and portable form that makes it the lightest front anamorphic zoom available.

Super 35+ sensor coverage

A 31.9 mm image circle allows the Proteus 26-45 mm zoom to cover a variety of Super 35 camera sensors, including the ARRI ALEXA 35 Open Gate and RED V-RAPTOR 7K 6:5 formats.

Parfocal design with minimal breathing

This parfocal lens maintains focus while zooming, allowing you to create various zoom effects. Optimal angle sharpness and minimal distortion and breathing combine to create expressive images similar to the look of Proteus Prime lenses.

Constant aperture T2.9

The Proteus zoom series maintains a maximum aperture of T2.9 throughout the zoom range, ensuring optimum exposure and impressive sharpness, even in difficult lighting conditions.

Minimal aberration

Proteus zoom lenses deliver optical performance superior with no distracting color fringing, even when shooting at the maximum aperture T2.9.

Anamorphic blue flash color

Blue flare effects create a sci-fi or vintage look that highlights the anamorphic style. One of the three available options, the blue flare color, is indicated on the lens body.

Short focusing distance

Use the 19" short close focusing distance and T2.9 maximum aperture to create a shallower depth of field with a greater sense of compression.

ARRI PL mounts and CANON EF

This Proteus zoom includes a native ARRI PL mount that is interchangeable with the included CANON EF mount and with the separately available interchangeable CANON RF, NIKON Z, SONY E and L mounts.

Optional 1.4x expander

Use this Proteus zoom with the separately available 1.4x expander to cover full-frame sensor cameras without any noticeable effect on resolution.

Soft focus fading

The 2x compression ratio produces an oval bokeh that adds an artistic touch, and the organic reduction of focus creates an appealing cinematic look.

77 mm filter thread

Use the front thread to attach a 77mm filter directly to the lens, saving the weight of a matte box on your camera equipment.

0.8 MOD gears

Industry standard MOD 0.8 gears are installed in the focus, iris and zoom rings.

Focusing scales in meters or feet

The focus marks are marked on the body of the lense in meters or feet.
