Max Field Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 I started out shooting with still lenses, got a Rokinon cine prime, and haven't been able to look back. When trying to get a cine zoom, I noticed the used price for most was a few thousand dollars. On eBay, I saw for around only $1000 flat, the Angenieux 10x12B 12-120mm zoom lens. The lower cost has to come at some quality expense, so I was wondering what I'm losing in contrast to a more expensive cine zoom like the Zeiss CZ.2 for example. Also, if this is one to avoid, are there any other relatively inexpensive cine zooms to check out, or maybe some still zooms that can still bring a great image? Thanks.

Jean-Louis Seguin Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 The 12-120mm is designed to cover the 16mm frame only. What camera are you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member Phil Rhodes Posted January 16, 2016 Premium Member Share Posted January 16, 2016 Well, the F3 has a cropped sensor mode, doesn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Field Posted January 16, 2016 Author Share Posted January 16, 2016 Well, the F3 has a cropped sensor mode, doesn't it? Unfortunately I'm not sure, just bought the camera online, was looking for lenses to compliment it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
