The famous Zeiss Super Speed Prime Lenses have been in use for decades, and are a great choice for many productions, adding experience and personality to the image. Their fast aperture of T1.3, small body and flattering image rendition, make them a favorite of many cinematographers.

The Zeiss Super Speed MKIII T1.3 lenses are the result of a decade of experience the German brands Zeiss and Arri have had. The MKIII lenses are very similar to the previous series, but with important improvements.

The MKIII have high-speed, great sharpness and contrast. These lenses set a standard in the industry for following lens versions, like the "Ultra Prime" or the "Master Prime"; these last two and the MKIII have the same 7-blade iris and focus ring system as the MKII.

Way before the MKIII, in the mid 70' s, the same manufacturers had a first lens set version (the MKI). At first, these lenses had a bayonet-type mount, which was changed for a PL mount a bit later. The main and most characteristic feature of these lenses is the triangle-shaped iris, and its effects become visible at T2.8 or above. The main flaw of this lens set's first version was the lack of rotation in the focus ring, which was around 180º. This was improved in the next versions, the MKII & MKIII, that have a 270º focus ring rotation.
