PICTOR ZOOM · SUPER 35 CINE
The Pictor 12–25mm T2.8 combines the widest perspective in the series with parfocal performance for smooth changes in field of view without the need for repeated refocusing.


Constant T2.8–T22, 16-blade aperture, 0.8 MOD focus, aperture, and zoom gears, and 270° focus travel work seamlessly with follow focus, motors, and other cine systems. Interchangeable PL/EF mounts support flexible workflow across setups.

A minimum focusing distance of 0.4 m allows you to capture fine details even in confined spaces. The official sample image for the series demonstrates its imaging character; it is labeled as part of the Pictor family, not as a standalone test of the 12–25mm lens.

The manufacturer's official Pictor 12–25mm sample shows how the ultra-wide range includes more of the environment while emphasizing the foreground. The zoom lets the operator refine composition without interrupting the shot.

Deeper depth of field and a wide field of view connect the subject with the environment. For the 12–25mm, the manufacturer highlights controlled distortion and strong edge rendering even in confined spaces.
The lens maintains focus throughout the entire zoom range with minimal focus breathing. The naturally circular bokeh of the 16-blade aperture and the consistent mechanics of the Pictor series make it ideal for feature films, commercials, documentaries, and other productions.
