Weighing just 1.64kg, its lightweight construction is ideal for handheld, gimbal, and drone shooting, offering portability without sacrificing durability.

The Vespid 16mm T2.8 prime lens complements the zoom with its ultra-wide perspective, perfect for expansive landscapes

capturing breathtaking landscapes, immersive action scenes, and creative wide-angle compositions. Its golden coating produces a distinctive retro aesthetic with cool blue tones and warm amber flares, ideal for arthouse and atmospheric storytelling. With minimal focus breathing and a 16-blade iris, it ensures immersive focus pulls and pleasing bokeh. The lens’s compact design (930g) and 270° focus rotation provide precise control, making it a favorite for fast-paced, creative shoots.

Both lenses feature an 80mm front diameter for compatibility with cine-style matte boxes and a 77mm filter thread for easy filter attachment. The standard M0.8 gearing ensures seamless integration with follow-focus systems. The included hard case protects the lenses during transport, making this set a practical choice for on-location shoots.
