Delivering superior colour reproduction, the lens allows professionals to create compelling ultra-high resolution video.

The new CJ20ex7.8B includes a built-in 2x extender, which even when shooting at the 312mm telephoto-end focal length, delivers superior optical performance to support use with 4K broadcast cameras.

Featuring a compact, lightweight body design, the lens delivers exceptional mobility in response to the needs of the broadcast industry, facilitating shoulder-mounted shooting and convenient transport.
