Canon XJ86x9.3B IE with Controls and Canon Sled, No I/S- USED

Description

The DIGISUPER 86xs series offers the second longest zoom ratio among the family of six HDTV field lenses presently offered by Canon.

The DIGISUPER 86xs series has become the most popular long field lens in the emerging fleets of HDTV mobile television facilities. Canon harnessed the best in optical, mechanical, and digital technologies to implement a long zoom lens that remains modest in its size and weight. Both lenses in the DIGI SUPER 86xs utilize an exceptional built-in image stabilization system to support such long zoom ratio operations.

These two lenses are intended for mobile truck operators, broadcasters, and major venue operators having as their foremost priority the greatest telephoto flexibility for high definition sports and entertainment event coverage. It can equally service the special needs of government (homeland security) and many institutional sectors of the market that might have long telephoto as a priority.

The DIGISUPER 86xs design applied the most state of the art in Canon optical technologies to break a barrier in focal length range that many considered impossible. Canon’s renowned engineering design optimization strategies were once again brilliantly applied to the unique technological challenges of providing full HDTV image quality while implementing control of focal length over the formidable range from 9.3mm to 800 mm for the XJ86x9.3B (1600 mm with extender) and an even longer 13.5 1161mm for the companion XJ86x13.5BIE-D (2322mm with extender). The designs paid particular attention to streamlining the ergonomics and physics of such challenging optical systems. The built-in optical image stabilization system (that makes such an unprecedented focal range practical) has earned industry acclaim.

The optimizations within the optical design successfully maintain a high MTF profile over the entire image plane when exercising the unprecedented 86:1 focal length change. A parallel optimization paid close attention to minimizing chromatic aberrations over this same focal range. Recognizing the especially challenging nature of sports and event coverage (that regularly encounter challenging low scene lighting) the lens designers also gave a special priority to achievement of an impressive maximum relative aperture of f 1.7 for the XJ86x9.3B and f 2.4 for the XJ86x13.5B.
