The Canon YH16X7KRS is a high-quality 16x zoom lens designed for professional camcorders and cameras with 1/2" CCDs. This lens is marketed by JVC, but will work equally well with Panasonic cameras. It offers close focus down to about three feet and a wide angle-of-view of 49°. Its internal focus design allows the lens to be used with sophisticated lens accessories like a matte box and square filters. This lens can be adapted to a studio set-up with various remote control units.
Internal Focus for Ultimate Versatility
The Canon YH16X7KRS is made for the highest quality professional video cameras used in news and event videography. Because the front lens element is stationary, it can be used with a matte box for greater lens flair protection, as well as a wide array of square and rectangular filters.
Remote Control for Studio Settings
For use in the studio where the camera is often mounted on a tripod or pedestal, remote controllers for focus and zoom are available. These remotes offer very smooth and predictable, even programmable and repeatable, zoom focus movements.
