Optics Learning Center:
The MK Series of lenses are designed for E-Mount cameras and boast advanced optical performance, ultra-compact and lightweight design, as well as superb cost performance. With a combined focal length range of 18mm-135mm in the Super 35mm format, the MK18-55mmT2.9 and MK50-135mmT2.9 cover the most frequently used range utilized by emerging cinematographers. The series offers fast lenses with T2.9 speed across the entire zoom range, enabling a shallow depth-of-field.
Thanks to the extreme popularity of the FUJINON MK zooms, third party providers have introduced a range of solutions to benefit MK lens owners and broaden their compatibility. One of the most popular accessories are additional camera mounts - MK Series lenses come standard with an E-Mount. Showcased in the Cine Gear booth will be the Duclos Lenses' FZ mount, which allows the lens to work with the popular Sony F5 and F55 cameras. Also shown will be MTF's Micro Four Thirds (M4/3) mount for the MK series. This mount allows for use on Panasonic, JVC, and other manufacturers' cameras. Heden, SLR Magic, Chrosziel, Bright Tangerine and Zacuto will also show their latest accessories for the MK lenses.
The new Duclos 1.7x expander enables FUJINON Cabrio and Premier Series Super 35mm zooms to be used on the latest larger sensor cameras, such as Sony's Venice, RED's Vista Vision 8K, and ARRI Alexa LF.

The FUJIFILM Check and Clean program at Cine Gear features updated firmware (if available for model), sensor cleaning (for interchangeable X Series and GFX cameras only), and general focus and function check on all models.
