Samyang XEEN 16mm T2.6 FF Cine Canon

The light-sensitive Cinema Prime lens 16 mm T2.6 XEEN is suitable for full-frame use, features internal focusing, and is versatile due to its angle of view, which corresponds to a slight wide-angle. Like all XEEN Cinema Prime lenses, the XEEN 16 mm T2.6 resolves in 4K and has the same construction as the other lenses in this line. This means that the housing diameter and the fixed gear distance for the aperture and focus rings are exactly the same across all models. This allows for quick and easy lens changes, whether on a rig or tripod, even with a follow-focus system installed. As is common with cinema lenses, this XEEN lens also features a stepless and continuously adjustable aperture with side-readable aperture values and a distance scale, as well as gears for focusing with a follow focus.

High-quality mechanics and craftsmanship

Of course, the 16 mm T2.6 XEEN can also be used with cameras that have a full-frame sensor. Filming with Super 35 mm, APS-C, and APS-H camera sensors is also no problem. The sharpness performance of this lens is impressive even at fully open aperture and can be precisely controlled over the 200° long focus.

The lens construction is housed in a robust aluminum tube. The necessary adjustments on the follow-focus or aperture ring are stepless and can be attached to all follow-focus systems with a 0.8 mm gear. The 11 aperture blades of the 16 mm Cinema wide-angle lens create an almost circular bokeh.
