We first saw the LingLung series of lenses from DZOFilm at NAB 2019, which includes the 20-70mm T2.9 and 10-24mm T2.9. Both lenses were designed for M4/3 cinema cameras like the BMPCC 4K, Z-Cam E2 & Panasonic GH5/GH5s.
Since that time, the engineers at DZOFilm have improved on the optics and mechanics.
Both lenses are claimed to be parfocal with minimum breathing.
Both lenses weigh 1.1kg (2.4lb), with 80mm front diameters for a matte box, standard 0.8 pitched gears and 12 aperture blades.
The two lenses will be launched on September 9 with a special pre-order price. No word on actual shipping date or when the pre-order finishes.
