Used Rokinon 85mm T1.5 Cine Aspherical Lens for Sony E Mount, 7 Groups/9 Elements, 3.6' Minimum Focusing Distance

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.

Old enough to have been said to be good. Buy it if you're on a budget or a beginner. I was on a budget so...

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!

My crew has truly enjoyed all the equipment/gear I’ve purchased From Adorama and absolutely love the lenses. The 85mm recommended by Author Lewis has assisted us with making the film project much more enhanced. Thank you! RhondaK Bennett Executive Director/Producer BDP Film Companys

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.

Solid budget cine lens, strapped on my Lumix body makes a nice combo.

The 85mm is probably my favorite in the Cine DS line. It's sharp at all apertures produces a great image. Well built body and solid feel.

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

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.

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.

Great glass for the price. The plastic housing does make them feel a little cheap, but they produce a great image

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

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.
