Questions & Answers

Gregg D : Is this lens compatible with a canon m50?
CHAZ S : For caps, filters and such. ...what is the physical size of the lens?JAE THOMAS S : 78mm
Yuliya B : Can this video lens be used to shoot images (stills)? Thank you.MARCELO C : Absolutely, I cant see why not.ANTHONY G : AbsolutelyAmbarish M : Absolutely, just keep in mind that there is no autofocus. That means focusing by hand and using peaking or a focus aid is useful. I've been using nothing but manual focus lenses for the past 7 years and find that I can nail focus almost as quickly as autofocus for most situations but definitely not for sports, not bragging just saying it's a much less difficult proposition than it sounds. It only took me a few weeks of practice to really get the hang of it. . Portraits and street photography it's perfect. Hope that helps.MICHAEL H : Yes.HECTOR P : Totally, be sure to get the correct mount. This lens works well on canon EF mountable camera. Be aware that this lens is all manual. I believe rokinon makes lenses similar to this that have the apropriate rings for photography.

Sadly had to return:(....

Sadly had to return it - this seems like a fantastic lens but the used camera I bought to use it with did not work:(. I really enjoyed talking with the person at Adorama but I am disappointed that my purchase was a bust. I'm taking a photography class and cameras today are so different and confusing and complicated. I was really looking forward to this package purchase but sadly had to return the whole thing - so I can't review the actual lens and sadly it was not compatible with my other camera which really stinks - it did come with a hood lens and came in a nice pouch so that was nice.

Great buy for the money!

These lenses are the perfect option for someone who’s moving into the world of cinema lenses but isn’t ready to spend tens of thousands of dollars. The build quality is great and the image is as well. Minimal focus breathing. Couldn’t be happier!

Perfect surprise

I was pleasantly surprised with this lens. I had heard it was on the cheaper end of cine lenses, but I've come to find that only means price. The build quality is sensational. The gears move so fluidly and the quality is really great. It even comes with a lens shade that you can remove. I was highly impressed with the lens and definitely recommend to everyone.

Rikinon 85mm lens

The lens is good. The bundle came with 77mm filters. It should have been 72mm filters.

great lense

I was looking for a longer focal length to get those shallower and flatter shots for filing. I currently have a gh4 and blackmagic cinema camera. I feel like this lens is perfect. reasonably sharp and a great value for the price. I haven't tested it for photography, but it has a very filmic look to it my opinion. especially on the black magic.

Great value

For the price you cannot beat what this little lens has to offer. As long as you are okay with manual focus, this thing is a beast! I actually used the lens to shoot video of the solar eclipse totality on my GH5 body. I was happy with what I was able to get! I made a custom solar filter (also purchased from Adorama) to fit the lens hood of course. Picture cropped in post.

Amazing Lens

I was debating if I should get this lens or not. The reviews were great and some OK. How good can an inexpensive lens be when the great ones cost 10x more. I decided to purchase this lens along with other focal lengths and my did I make the right choice. The image is just stunning and the fast aperture is awesome. If I had to I would buy these again. I can't wait to use these in future projects.

High-quality low-cost

By STUDIO D.

This Lens is fast and sharp, and has a short turn for focus. Great quality at low-cost.

Take your photography and videography to new heights with the Rokinon 85mm T1.5 Cine DS Lens for Canon EF. This high-quality, professional lens is designed with a "de-clicked" aperture, eliminating any noise and jerking sounds during shooting, making it an ideal choice for videographers.

The lens boasts a wide aperture of T1.5, providing exceptional control over depth of field and enabling you to capture stunning images even in low light conditions. Its slightly telephoto angle-of-view on full-frame sensors, coupled with an 8 blade iris, delivers a shallow depth of field with attractive bokeh, enhancing the aesthetic appeal of your shots.

The Rokinon 85mm T1.5 Cine DS Lens is follow-focus compatible, offering a convenient and precise method for controlling focus without the need to reach over to the front of the lens. The focus and aperture control rings are equipped with industry-standard gearing, providing an interface for seamless operation with a traditional follow focus.

The lens also features an internal focusing mechanism, minimizing the effects of lens breathing and ensuring a more consistent angle-of-view when adjusting focus. Composed of 9 elements in 7 groups, including one aspherical element, the lens effectively reduces spherical aberrations. The multi-coated elements further enhance light transmission, delivering crisp, clear, and vibrant images.

Whether you're a professional photographer or a passionate hobbyist, the durable and versatile Rokinon 85mm T1.5 Cine DS Lens for Canon EF is a reliable addition to your camera gear, designed to elevate your visual storytelling.
