The XA99x8.4 PF ultra-wide field production lens with Precision Focus Assist offers a zoom range of 99x, a focal length of 8.4 to 832mm, and MOD of 2.9m. The XA99x is f1.7 to 341mm and f4.2 at 832mm. Like other lenses in this product line, including the HA27x6.5 PF, XA88x8.8 PF and the XA101x8.9 PF, the XA99x8.4 PF offers FUJINON's DIGI POWER digital controls (featuring F number limit), Quick Zoom, two-shot presets, a 2X extender, and other precision digital functions increasing production flexibility.The Emmy Award winning Precision Focus Assist has always enabled camera operators the ability to ensure fast accurate focusing. The new upgraded PF now does it faster, under extreme conditions, and with more accuracy. The PF system gives confidence to the operator that the HD images will be tack sharp.The XA99x8.4 PF features a newly developed patented image stabilization technology for rock-steady performance, which is especially critical for long-distance HD shots. High-resolution 16-bit encoders are standard, making it suitable to virtual, robotic, and digital signage, among other applications. FUJINON's exclusive GO-Technology improves image resolution and chromatic aberrations at all focal lengths.This 2/3-inch telephoto field lens employs the latest High Transmittance Electron Beam Coating (HT-EBC) resulting in richer colors and greatly improved blue response and transmittance. HT-EBC coupled with FUJINON's exclusive Aspheric Technology reduce ghost and flare and increase light transmission. A proprietary anti-fogging design minimizes lens fogging and reduces downtime due to moisture-a critical concern when shooting in all types of weather conditions

Digi Power

With broadcasting technology rapidly converting to digital, Fujinon has developed a new digital servo control system, DIGI POWER, to enhance the performance of its zoom lenses. State-of-the-art components including a 32-bit RISC processor in the lens, a CPU in each servo demand, optical encoders and high-speed serial communication devices, together with the newly developed digital control circuit, provide 13-bit accuracy in zoom and focus control as well as a variety of new functions.

An RS232 connector in the lens provides a connection between the lens and a PC, or other control device, for external control. This function has made it possible to control the lens functions with the high degree of accuracy and reliability needed for virtual studio and other robotic applications, and to raise the level for all production environments.

Digital Quick Zoom

Quick Zoom speed is improved to 0.7 seconds end to end. Quick Zoom provides for a rapid zoom movement to the telephoto position to check focus with the simple push of a button. Releasing the button returns the lens to the previously selected zoom position. Quick Zoom can now be performed remotely from the ERD-T22 and ERD-10A-D01.

No other lenses come close in performance or features.

Digital Cruise Zoom

Cruise Zoom will allow extremely smooth and steady zooms. When the Cruise Zoom is engaged, the circuitry will hold the rate, however fast or slow it may be, until the end of the range or overridden. Cruise Zoom will work in either direction, at any speed. Super slow, steady zooms are a snap.

OS-TECH

Newly developed OS-TECH (Optical Stabilization) contains sensors to detect the slightest movement horizontally or vertically that could cause vibration. A correction signal is applied to the optical correction system, which helps to maintain a stable image while shooting from an unstable platform.

Digital Find System

The Focused Intelligent Network Diagnosis system aids in preventive maintenance and troubleshooting by evaluating various lenses' electronic and mechanical parameters.
