Unrivalled performance for immersive broadcasting

Canon marked 60 years of broadcast lenses last year. Launch of CJ15ex4.3B is further evidence of our industry-leading commitment to developing innovative products with superb optical performance. This lens faithfully reproduces all tones and supports chromatic aberration correction in BT color space.2020 when used with a compatible 4K camera.

This will help deliver a brighter, deeper and more realistic picture with gorgeous tones and realistic textures: thus meeting consumer demand for broadcast content with a more powerful presence effect.

Optimized placement of fluorite, ultra-low dispersion UD and super ultra-low dispersion super UD lenses in the CJ15ex4 lens.3B also provides optical chromatic aberration correction.
