The Laowa Ranger Lite 28-75mm T2.9 Cine Lens is a full-frame compatible cinema lens system, available with a PL mount and Canon EF mount. Weighing 1.264 kg and constructed from magnesium alloy, this lens offers a 10 percent weight reduction compared to similar professional cinema lenses. The versatile focal length range of 28-75 mm provides a 2.7x zoom factor, suitable for wide-angle shots as well as detailed close-ups. A constant T2.9 aperture ensures consistent exposure throughout the zoom range, which is particularly effective for low-light shooting. The parfocal design keeps subjects sharp in focus during zoom operations, while minimized focus breathing allows for smooth focus transitions. The lens achieves an extremely close focus distance of 0.49 m, enabling detailed close-ups with rich depth of field. The professional cinema housing includes an integrated back focus adjustment system, eliminating the need for shimming processes. Standardized 80 mm outer diameter and 77 mm filter thread ensure compatibility with common matte boxes and filters. The uniform gear position in the Ranger lens series allows for quick focal length changes without gear adjustments. Control features include 0.8 module gears for aperture and focus rings, dual scales with imperial and metric measurements, a 270-degree focus throw, and a 100-degree zoom throw for precise operation. The lens comes with a native PL mount and includes an interchangeable EF mount for camera system flexibility. This lightweight design supports various shooting configurations, including gimbal, auto-rig, shoulder rig, and handheld operation, making it suitable for both solo filmmakers and larger production teams requiring reliable cinematic performance.
