Ultra Prime are a long-running working series for Super 35. They render cleanly, contrasty and sharply with neutral and consistent color, so a change of focal length is not noticeable in the edit.
Compact bodies (91 mm length at most focal lengths) and a shared 95 mm front diameter speed up changes on set. PL mount and minimum focus distance from 0.25 m at the widest focal length.
