This lens is capable of full 4K-Resolution performance. You can use 105mm screw in filters on all the Canon Cinema Prime Lenses. Here are three suggestions in good-better-best order: Tiffen 105mm Coarse Thread UV Protector Filter B&H # TIUVP105, B+W 105mm UV Haze MRC 010M Filter B&H # BWUVMC105, Sigma 105mm WR UV Filter B&H # SIUV105Q.

All extreme wide lenses exhibit some level of barrel, chromatic, and rectilinear distortion. If you wish to avoid these negatives while using wide lenses, do not get too close to your subject and cause barrel distortion or tilt and cause leaning lines. This Canon CN-E 14mm reduces all wide angle distortions to an absolute minimum. This is in keeping with the fact that this lens is meant for the Hollywood market where only the best will do. Final note: Wide and tele lenses have characteristics unique unto themselves. In the beginning of their camera career, people often look at these characteristics as negatives to be overcome. In time, the user knows what to look for and then exploits these characteristics to storytelling advantage.

No stabilzation. Mostly meant for sitting on tripods.

No, this is an ultra-wide lens and if you are shooting an entire film with one prime lens, a 35mm or 50mm would be much better. The Canon 24-105 L series zoom works perfectly with the C100 and can provide image stabilization and auto-focus as well as lens distortion correction in one compact package.
