The EZ-1 has been designed using the same concept as the Optimo 44-440 A2S, the EZ Type Series can fit either Super 35mm digital motion picture cameras or cameras with larger sensors such as Full Frame or VistaVision.

The Angénieux Type EZ-1 for FF/VistaVision format is a standard zoom lens with a zoom factor of 3x. Its focal range and aperture are set to 45-135mm / T3, covering an image circle up to 46mm diagonal. By exchanging the rear lens group, the lens becomes a 30-90mm / T2 for S35mm format, covering an image circle up to 30mm diagonal.

The new Angénieux Type EZ series will fill the wide gap between basic still photography zooms, and the highly acclaimed Optimo Style family of lenses used in the motion picture industry.
