Great quality lens

Amazing lens for the value. Paired it with a C70 and the DJI Lidar system. Love the colors and sharpness of this lens. I was hesitant at first, since the brand is new to the market- but I'm considering another focal length soon.

Budget lens

Great budget lens, currently using with the DJI lidar/focus pro system. Unsure if this is chromatic aberration - subject outlines with pink color were noticeable when filming low-light with blue (240) 300w key.

Nisi Athena 25mm

This lens is cinematic and sharp. I love it. The best budget lens by far. I done shoot short film and music videos for quite a while. And over the years I experienced many lens. The image quality from this lens is amazing. I shout in the red Komodo and the drop in filter turns your red camera into the perfect compact cinematic solution. I recommend this lens

Sharp glass

I've been hunting for some sharp glass for a good while. This small set of primes are just what the production doctor ordered!

An absolute Dream for Modern Cinema!

As an independent owner-operator, I'm always lusting after some of the top-shelf gear that I may never get to own. I've been looking far and wide for a solid cine lens set. I considered IRIX, Dulens, DZO, Meike, and Canon CN-E, but ultimately settled on these for their combination of low price, tiny weight, and bright aperture. At the end of the day, these are fantastic and I'm delighted with the choice. The entire set is sharp, fast, light, and consistent. The coverage is excellent, easily hitting full-frame and beyond with very little vignetting. The small size makes them convenient in a variety of setups, and ultimately they are just a ton of fun to use. The one drawback is how far they protrude behind the PL mount, which makes them incompatible with most drop-in filter systems. However this is a small price to pay in exchange for getting near-ARRI-level performance at 95% lower price and 50% smaller size and weight. Also, the Breakthrough Cinema DFM adapter *does* supposedly work with these, so I'm interested to try that out. In any event, I expect to keep this set for a very, very long time. At this price, the set is absolutely unbeatable. It provides s a very clean, neutral look which can be easily manipulated in post. I might go chase some vintage looks in the future, but I doubt I'll ever get rid of something this reliable, usable, and overall just FUN to shoot with as these. ONE THING TO BE AWARE OF, however. When I first got these lenses, I was shooting on the Canon R5 C. These lenses delivered very similar performance to what I was previously getting out of my native RF glass, what I called my "Mini Cine" kit. Those lenses are also extraordinary and largely overlooked. In fact, if you turn on the automatic corrections in camera, the RF set delivers an almost identical image to the Athenas, just that the RF glass is a little bit softer. In fact, the Athenas are SO sharp that on the Canon R5 C it was a bit too much, and made things look really harsh in some cases. This can be mitigated in post, or even in-camera if you aren't shooting RAW. But there's something in the nature of Canon's sensor or OLPF stack which was making for some unpleasant over-sharpness in some cases. But I recently added a RED V-Raptor to the arsenal, and the Athenas produce a much less harsh image on the Raptor. It's still sharp, but much more smooth and much more pleasant. The point is, just be aware that your camera's sensor can play a part in how the image comes back. You can manipulate things in post, of course, but for those who like to get a good image quickly without much manipulation, make sure to check your sharpness settings etc. Just do some tests, do your homework, and these lenses will reward you. I absolutely love them.

Great quality lens

By Josh B.

Amazing lens for the value. Paired it with a C70 and the DJI Lidar system. Love the colors and sharpness of this lens. I was hesitant at first, since the brand is new to the market- but I'm considering another focal length soon.

For filmmakers seeking superior image quality and creative control, the NiSi ATHENA PRIME Full Frame Cinema Lens MASTER Kit is an exceptional choice. This comprehensive kit includes eight meticulously engineered lenses (14mm T2.4, 18mm T2.2, 25mm T1.9, 35mm T1.9, 40mm T1.9, 50mm T1.9, 85mm T1.9, 135mm T2.2), each designed to deliver unparalleled image quality and detail in every frame.

The ATHENA PRIME lenses offer a 46mm imaging circle, providing full-frame coverage and beyond. This feature allows for a wide range of shooting requirements, from capturing expansive landscapes to detailed portraits. The large apertures, ranging from T1.9 to T2.4, work in harmony with the distinct soft bokeh to enhance the visual depth and emotional impact of your narrative.

Each lens in the ATHENA PRIME range is designed with superior micro-contrast control and minimal chromatic aberration, ensuring unmatched image quality. The lenses are also designed to minimize focus breathing, providing a consistent field of view when adjusting focus. This is crucial for maintaining the integrity of your visual storytelling, ensuring smooth, distraction-free transitions that keep your audience engaged.

The ATHENA PRIME lenses come with matched iris and focus ring placements, ensuring a smooth and efficient operation, particularly valuable in dynamic shooting scenarios. The L mount models are equipped with a drop-in filter slot, allowing for easy addition of ND filters, polarizers, or other filters to achieve your desired look without having to attach filters to the front of the lens. This feature also makes it easier to swap filters quickly and efficiently, saving time and reducing the risk of lens damage.

A key advantage of the NiSi ATHENA PRIME lenses is their uniform weight and dimensions (with the exception of the 135mm lens), which negates the need for gimbal rebalancing when changing lenses, thereby saving valuable time on set. The lenses come with a 77mm filter thread (excluding the 14mm) and matching aperture and focus rings across the range, simplifying the use of lens accessories.

The focus ring, offering 300 Degree of rotation with fluorescent focal scales, allows for precise focus pulls, essential for achieving sharp, dynamic shots. The NiSi ATHENA PRIME Full Frame Cinema Lens MASTER Kit is not just a set of lenses; it's a complete filmmaking solution offering unparalleled image quality, flexibility, and creative freedom. Encased in a durable hard case for maximum protection and portability, ensuring you have everything you need to bring your cinematic vision to life.
