PL Mount. This 25-100mm cinema lens was designed for use on PL-mount cameras. It can cover both standard 35mm and Super 35 image sensors. Its image circle will cover full-frame, VistaVision, and Arri Alexa LF sized sensors and smaller.

Ultra-Wide to Telephoto Cine Zoom. The Venus Optics Laowa OOOM 25-100mm T2.9 Cine’s versatile all-in-one zoom range, parfocal design, constant T2.9 aperture, and close 2.0-foot minimum focusing distance make it great for a range of applications, including narrative and documentary filmmaking, and working in low light.

Vintage Look. This lens’s rectilinear sixteen-group/twenty-element optical design and nine-blade aperture combine to produce images with a vintage look in their color and bokeh. That said, the images aren’t overly contrasty or flat; they have the same sharpness you’d expect out of a modern lens. The 25-100mm does an exceptional job rendering natural, healthy skin tones and smooth transitions.

Professional-Grade Cinema Design. The aperture and focusing rings boast standard 0.8 mod gears so that you can easily install a follow-focus system. The extended 300° smooth focus throw gives you accurate focus pulling with almost no focus breathing, and you get 50.5° of iris rotation. The OOOM 25-100mm has a 95mm front filter thread and a 100mm front diameter, and is a reasonably lightweight 5.5 lbs.

Lens Support Included. This rental includes a , which lets you easily mount and unmount the support on your rods without having to remove other rod-mounted accessories.
