Canon 30-105mm T2.8

The 30-105mm T2.8 holds a clean, neutral character across its range, with color that reads true to source and contrast that sits in modern territory without tipping into clinical. Sharpness stays consistent from wide open through the zoom, and the focus plane resolves with even rendering corner to corner. Flare is controlled and undramatic, while the iris draws rounded, well-behaved bokeh that keeps subjects separated against soft backgrounds. PL mount, parfocal tracking through the full range, geared focus, zoom and iris rings, and an image circle that covers Super 35. A practical zoom for documentary, episodic, and run-and-gun setups where a single optic needs to cover the spread without breaking continuity.
