Q: 1. Which is the filter size ?

A: 82mm.

Q: 2. Would this lens be a good choice adopt to a Blackmagic design Studio 4k camera using a B4 adopter or to the Ursa 4.6k with a B4 adopter?

A: You can use the KJ13x6B KRSD HDgc 13x 2/3 ENG/EFP Lens with both cameras as long as you use the appropriate adapters that compensate for the fact neither camera has the prism the lens is designed to work with. On the Studio 4K, use the MTF Services Ltd B4 2/3 To Micro 4/3 Adapter B&H # MTB4M43. On the USRA Mini 4.6, use the Blackmagic Design URSA Mini Pro B4 Mount B&H # BLUMPB4M.

Q: 3. I have a Canon C200 that I want to use for live event production and need a longer zoom servo lens. I purchased a MTF Services Ltd B4 2/3" to Canon EF Adapter and paired it with a Canon SD B4 lens and it works well but the image quality is much softer than any of my EF lenses. Being that this is an HD lens will this pair better and provide sharper images if I upgrade to the Canon KJ20x8.2B? I was also considering the Fujinon XA20sx8.5BERM-K3 ENG Lens.

A: The Canon KJ20x8.2B Portable 20x HD Lens with 2x Zoom Extender (B&H# CAKJ20X82BIR) is designed to offer high resolution images and will outperform Canon SD B4 lenses that regard as well as many others. The Fujinon XA20sx8.5BERM-K3 ENG Lens (B&H# FUXA20SX85BE) is exceeding similar in its optical specifications and offers similar performance.

Q: 4. Will this lens work correctly on the Blackmagic Ursa Broadcast G2 with no adaptors?

Q: 6. Will this work on a Canon C100 Mark 1?

A: Sorry, no. This lens is designed to cover a ENG (Electronic News Gathering) 2/3 sensor which is much smaller than the Super35 sensor of the Canon C100. One solution is to use the MTF Services Ltd B4 2/3 to Canon EF Adapter with 2/3 lenses. You still cannot use the the Canon 8.2-164mm f/1.9-2.7 HD ENG Zoom Lens however. You need a 2/3 lens with an extender. The adapter and the lens's extender make the image large enough to cover the sensor. There are two disadvantages: you lose 2 stops of light and you must have the extender engaged at all times. See the attached links to the adapter and the most affordable 2/3 zoom with extender we have. If you are well heeled, Canon has made an ENG type lens for Super35 cameras including the Canon C Series camcorders. It is the Canon CN7x17 KAS S Cine-Servo 17-120mm T2.95 (EF Mount). Unfortunately, in order for this lens to cover the large Super35 sensor, it is bigger, made to the highest standards and priced accordingly. Final note: These lenses will require a separate power cable to a d-tap battery in order for the servo zoom motor to work. See attached cable.

Q: 7. Would this lens work on the ARRI Amira Premium?

A: At this time we are not resellers for ARRI Cinema Cameras, so you may want to contact them directly for a list of compatible lenses. That being said, if your ARRI Amira Premium has a B4 mount, this would fit on it. However you really will want to check with ARRI regarding their recommendations for B4 lenses.

Q: 8. Is this lens delivered with a hard case too?

A: The Canon HJ40ex14B IASE-V H 2/3" HDxs Broadcast Servo Lens with Image Stabilization does not come with a hard case.

Q: 9. Does this lens require a 6-pin or 12-pin connection?

A: It has a 12 pin connection.

Q: 10. Can i use ZSD-300D and FPD-400D + FPM-77 for full servo control on this lens?

A: You can use the ZSD-300D, the FPD-400D, and the FPM-77 with the Canon 8.2-164mm f/1.9-2.7 HD ENG Zoom Lens.
