DZOFilm VESPID 16mm cine lens provides 16mm full-frame framing in a compact manual cinema housing with PL/EF mount capability. The VESPID family is designed for narrative, commercial, documentary, gimbal, handheld, and rental packages that value compact matched mechanics.

Product Overview

DZOFILM Vespid Full Frame Cine Prime 16mm T2.8 Lens uses a 16mm focal length and T2.8 maximum aperture. DZOFILM lists the VESPID family with a 46.5mm Vista Vision and full-frame image circle, interchangeable PL and EF mount system, 80mm front outside diameter, M77 filter thread, 0.8 MOD focus and iris gears, and manual cinema control. The compact matched housings help crews rebalance less often when changing lenses.

Key Features

16mm T2.8 Full-Frame Prime

The 16mm field of view and T2.8 aperture provide a dedicated manual prime option for full-frame and Vista Vision capture.

PL and EF Mount Capability

The VESPID mount system supports ARRI PL and Canon EF workflows when the correct mount, clearance, and back-focus setup are used.

Compact Matched Mechanics

An 80mm front, M77 filter thread, 0.8 MOD gears, and consistent manual layout simplify accessory moves and lens changes.

How It Compares

Choose this VESPID 16mm for compact matched full-frame cinema-prime operation and PL/EF flexibility. Choose a Vespid2 set for T1.9 speed and Cooke /i data in ARRI PL, a different focal length for another field of view, or autofocus stills lenses when electronic focus and aperture are required.

Compatible Accessories and Related Gear

VESPID seven-lens kit and another VESPID focal length. Check the installed ARRI PL or Canon EF interface, 46.5mm recording-area coverage, rear clearance, back focus, lens support, 80mm matte-box fit, M77 filters, and 0.8 MOD follow-focus position.

Who Is This For?

This lens is for cinematographers, rental houses, film schools, owner-operators, and narrative, commercial, documentary, gimbal, or handheld crews building a compact manual full-frame prime package.

Who Should Choose Something Else?

Choose Vespid2 when a constant T1.9 aperture and Cooke /i data are essential, a larger or smaller focal-length package when coverage needs differ, or native autofocus lenses for run-and-gun single-operator work.
