Canon Lens Built for Pro Broadcast Needs
Professional broadcasting requires reliable, high-performance lenses that can keep up with fast-paced events and shifting shooting conditions. Canon’s CJ20ex5B IASE T meets that need with a flexible hybrid design and a 20x zoom range — from a wide 5mm to a 100mm telephoto. It’s a versatile solution for a broad range of live production settings. At National Store, we’re proud to carry the full line of 4K broadcast Canon lenses, including the CJ20ex5B IASE T.
Raising the bar for broadcast performance
The CJ20ex5B IASE T is a UHDxs lens that features the eX-V drive, Canon’s latest Digital Drive Unit. This upgraded system improves servo control and repositions the information display for easier access. With USB-C connectivity, set up and maintenance are easier. These features ensure this lens performs well today while also supporting future broadcast needs.
Optimised for speed and precision
The improved drive unit features a faster servo, allowing for quicker and more responsive iris adjustments, an essential benefit for sports coverage and live event shooting. Canon’s renowned zoom and focus speed remain intact, while the unit stays compatible with cameras like the ZSD-300D and FPD-400D.
Focus breathing compensation ensures that the angle of view stays consistent even when focus settings change. Multiple interface options also support remote operation, and a high-resolution 16-bit encoder provides precise lens data output.
Designed for comfort and control
The lens’s redesigned grip fits comfortably in your hand, supporting longer shoots without strain. A repositioned display on top of the unit improves visibility during operation, while three 20-pin connectors, including one angled at the rear, make connecting to Canon zoom and focus controls easier.
For remote setups, such as cranes or jibs, the extender can be managed through an optional switch box. The USB-C port expands functionality by allowing firmware updates and easy access to stored user settings.
Outstanding image quality
This lens delivers sharp 4K resolution from edge to edge. Canon’s advanced lens coatings reduce problems — from chromatic aberration to ghosting and flare — resulting in clean, accurate visuals that meet the demands of UHD broadcast standards.
