Samyang XEEN 85mm T1.5 FF Cine Nikon F

The light-sensitive Cinema Prime lens 85 mm T1.5 XEEN is suitable for full-frame cameras, features internal focusing, and is versatile due to its portrait focal length angle. Like all XEEN Cinema Prime lenses, the XEEN 85mm T1.5 resolves in 4K and has the same design as the other lenses in this line. This means that the length, housing diameter, and the fixed gear distance for the aperture and focus rings are exactly the same across all models. Thus, changing lenses, whether on a rig or tripod, is quick and easy, even with an installed follow-focus system. As is common with cinema lenses, this XEEN lens also features a stepless and continuously adjustable aperture with side-readable aperture values and distance scale, as well as gears for focusing with a follow focus.

High-quality mechanics and craftsmanship

Of course, the 85mm T1.5 XEEN can be used not only with cameras that have a full-frame sensor. Filming is also no problem with Super 35 mm, APS-C, and APS-H camera sensors. 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 consists of 13 lenses in 12 groups, housed in a robust aluminum tube. The necessary adjustments on the follow-focus or aperture ring are, of course, stepless and can be attached to all follow-focus systems with a 0.8 mm gear. The 11 aperture blades of the 35mm cinema lens create an almost circular bokeh.
