Do you have a sample image to see how visible the vignetting is at 9.5mm in S16?

Yes, I do have! I can send you samples if you share your email with me!

[Felix Finken]

Perfect, it's kontakt@felixfinken.de! If you have any other lens tests or footage it would be amazing if you could share that too. Thanks a lot! 

[Gregg MacPherson]

Is it still available? Can you send me the test footage, including something showing the vignetting? Is it factory PL mount or was it swapped over later?

Thanks, Gregg.

This isn't a cinema zoom, it's an old HD zoom for ENG cameras, it would originally have been B3 or B4 mount and designed to compensate for the beam-splitting prism in those cameras. Can't imagine the image quality wide open is very good used on a modern sensor or film. Pretty sure the aperture ramps from f/1.8 to f/2.6. 

[Gregg MacPherson]

Thanks. I was wondering about that. I have been curious about a CANON HD-EC ZOOM LENS HJ21x7.5B-III KLL-SC T2.1, in B4 mount, that comes with an Abakus 132 (about 1.4 extender) B$/PL for S16 format, which corrects the colour fringing. I have seen some test footage with a 1.1 extender and it looked quite sharp, still covering S16.

Just a distraction. I don't need it.

I did some tests, the aperture does not ramps during the zoom.

Every Angenieux 9.5 - 142 I’ve seen has 1:1.8 - 2.6 written on the front barrel, meaning they ramp from f/1.8 to f/2.6.
