Canon unveiled its two new HD lenses for specific HDTV studio applications. Both DIGISUPER 27 and DIGISUPER 27AF integrate superior technology to deliver stunning results. The lenses feature newly developed multi-layer optical coatings resulting in reduced ghosting and flaring. Incorporating Digital Servo System the lenses achieves maximum servo-zoom speed of 0.5 seconds. The system helps the operator to get better focus and zooming control.

The DIGISUPER 27AF has been optimized to render benefits of auto-focus technology for creation of the highest quality HD video images to be used by HDTV studios. With Part-time, Full-time and off Auto Focus the operator gets flexibility to capture digital media in assisted or unassisted modes. Both models also feature a new, optional, remote-controllable macro-focus, enabling the operator to perform macro focusing from the pan bar.
