DZOFilm X-tract 18-28mm FF Probe T8.0 Overview

Innovative 90° Probe Zoom

Offering a 100 to 73° field of view, the ARRI PL-mount, 90° X-Tract 18-28mm T8 FF Probe Zoom Lens from DZOFilm brings innovative close-up capture to your productions. This compact probe lens measures just 41 cm in length and has a front diameter of less than 3 cm, making it ideal for tight setups. It features a relatively fast T8 maximum aperture, a 2.1:1 maximum magnification, and a 0.6 cm minimum focusing distance. This 90° version offers a right-angle view; 0° direct view and 360° periscope lens versions are available separately.

Wide 18-28mm Zoom

• This 18-28mm zoom offers an ultrawide to more midrange reach, covering most common focal lengths.
• The wide 100 to 73° field of view supports flexible capture.

Rotating 90° View

• This 90° probe features a right-angle design that provides creative positioning.
• A rotating ring enables even greater flexibility.

Close Capture in Narrow Spaces

• Craft creative shots using a maximum magnification ratio of 2.1:1.
• The extremely close minimum focusing distance of around 0.6 cm lets you get super tight coverage of your subject.
• The large depth of field and wide-angle focal length combine to enable close-ups in constricted areas while maintaining a safe distance from your subject.

Low-Distortion, High-Resolution Optics

• The optical design has both ED (extra-low dispersion) and high-refractive index elements, suppressing chromatic and spherical aberrations.
• Advanced coatings help minimize flaring and reflections.
• Incorporates seven HRI (high-refractive-index) lens elements, producing more natural color.
• ±2% distortion control across the zoom range.

T8 Maximum Aperture

• The relatively fast T8 maximum aperture is maintained throughout the zoom range.
• Multilayer, antireflective coatings help ensure sharp, clear images even when shooting wide open.

Waterproof, Cine-Style Design

• Focus, iris, and zoom functions all have 0.8 MOD cine-style gears for compatibility with follow focus and lens motor systems.
• A lightweight yet rear-heavy design helps reduce vibrations while shooting.
• The focus barrel offers a wide 300° rotation for precise focus pulls.
• Waterproof and dustproof, this probe lens is also scratch and fog resistant.
