Overview:
Utilizing a multi-layer
coating process for consistent color rendition from lens to lens, the Samyang
85mm T1.5 VDSLRII Cine Lens for Canon EF Mount answers the challenge of
assembling a set of lenses over time. The lens comes in Canon EF Mount and it
features industry standard geared focus and iris rings that share common
position with other Samyang VDSLTII Cine lenses. To aid focus pullers who have
to work both sides of the lens, the aperture and focus scales are marked on
both sides of the lens.
This 85mm lens produces a
28.3° angle-of-view when used with a full-frame sensor camera or a 35mm SLR.
Hybrid aspherical lenses render sharply defined images with a minimum of
distortion and chromatic aberrations, with a minimum focus distance of 3'6"
from the lens. A removable lens hood provides flare protection when shooting
without a matte box and the lens's threaded front accepts 72mm filter rings.
- Ultra Multi Coated lenses
minimize flare and ghosting, and the lenses are color matched to a standard
eliminating the need to acquire an entire set of lenses at the same time.
-
Industry-standard gearing for
focus and aperture rings. Each lens in the Samyang VDSLRII Cine Lens series
share common focus and iris gear ring positions, which speeds up lens changes
as accessories such as follow focus units or iris motors don't have to be
re-positioned.
-
Declicked aperture ring for
smooth iris pulls.
-
A removable lens hood
provides flare protection without a matte box.
-
The lens opens up to T1.5,
providing the capability for low light shooting or creating extremely shallow
depth of field.
