Finest, 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”
Get the most out of your footage with these trusted Zeiss Classics. Zeiss Super Speeds arguably the most capable and some of the most beautiful vintage lenses available. Their T1.3 maximum aperture is an obvious advantage and puts them in rare company. Whether you are wide-open or stopped down, the images they produce are magic. From the special glass made from rare earth materials that can no longer be used to make lenses, to Zeiss’ magic T* coating, these lenses just make people look good. They produce beautiful blue and magenta lens flares, and have minimal focus breathing.
SUPER SPEED MKIII TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

From The Shining (1980) to Straight Outta Compton (2015), there is a reason these lenses continue to be the first and only choice for many DPs. Our Super Speeds are color matched, and the set includes the rare 65mm T1.3. We also had our witness marks painted bright white, which is much easier to see in low light situations than the classic orange paint traditionally used for the imperial focus scales. You can add any of our Zeiss Standard Speed primes to round out the set.
