I asked before and you said you weren't 100% sure then.

Does the lens have full manual zoom allowing for crash zooms and such?

ERIC!!!.....I swear....just kidding, I haven't had the lens in my hand since NAB but I'll be sure to clear that up when it gets here....promise, I swear

Eric-
Just confirmed...when you change the switch on the motor attached to the lens to manual, you can do your crash zoom.....

 

[Eric Coughlin]

Thanks for the confirmation.

I'm looking very forward to having this lens. Will probably become my most used lens.

Looking forward to your review Eric. You're a gear guy and know what makes a lens totally practical for us.

Could you pair it with 1dx II and 1d c and check the vignetting in 4k mode?

And report AF stills and video performance on 1dx II?


Thanks
