There is a brief description here on this rental house site. Your lenses look like they have PL mounts.

As to value. Based on a set on offer on the internet, I would say around $3000 - $5000.

The mount is not PL or BNC, it B4 for ENG type CCD sensors, not sure if for 2/3" or 1/3" chips, probably 2/3". So they will not cover just about any sensors unless you have a multiplier, usually x2, or Super16 crop in camera.

Canon’s EJ series DigiPrimes were originally built and designed for B4-Mount 3-chip CCD sensors. When paired with IB/E’s HDx35 B4 to PL Expander the lenses are setup for a 2.5x focal expansion, making them a striking option for Super35 image capture.


The set includes a 6mm, 10mm, 15mm, 25mm, and 35mm focal lengths all at a very fast T/1.5. With the Expander, you end up with a 15, 26, 40, 65, and 91mm range of primes, all at a T/1.5.


The adapter fully corrects aberrations incurred with the 3-chip minded optical design, correcting the lenses for use on single-sensor cameras and does incur a 2.5 stop loss of light, which does not affect depth of field.


The set is known for gorgeous paint-like bokeh rendering with a fair amount of field curvature and an incredibly gentle focus fall-off., and were used on the film 28 Days Later. Spherical Aberration is well-controlled, which leaves options for both edge framing without loss of detail, and center framing with plenty of falloff depending on how the scene is setup.

Includes:

  • Canon 6mm T/1.5 EJ DigiPrime
  • Canon 10mm T/1.5 EJ DigiPrime Lens
  • Canon 15mm T/1.5 EJ DigiPrime
  • Canon 24mm T/1.5 EJ DigiPrime Lens
  • Canon 35mm T/1.5 EJ DigiPrime Lens
