Recent years have witnessed expansions in both HD production and the range of program genres. Within this environment the worldwide popularity of the HJ22ex7.6B lens as a flexible multipurpose lens exhibiting high optical performance and ease of operation has grown significantly. The combination of a generous 22x zoom ratio and a wide 7.6mm field of view meets numerous challenging production applications that include dramas, documentaries, sports, news etc. 

A newly developed digital drive unit has further streamlined the lens ergonomics to further empower camera operator shooting flexibility. The new drive unit will be identified with an “A” at the end of the model name - such as IRSE A or IASE A.
