High-performance cine prime lens for Canon EF mount.
The Rokinon XEEN CF 85mm T1.5 is a cinema prime from Rokinon's XEEN CF series — the premium tier with carbon fibre barrels for reduced weight while maintaining cinema-grade mechanics: matched de-clicked aperture, standard-pitch focus gear, and calibrated T-stops across the full XEEN CF set.
85mm focal length, T1.5 maximum aperture, carbon fibre barrel, de-clicked aperture ring, standard-pitch focus gear, Canon EF mount, 95mm front filter thread, manual focus, full-frame coverage, electronic contacts (EXIF).
The XEEN CF series is designed as a matched set for multi-camera production — uniform front diameter (114mm), common focus rotation direction, and matched T-stop calibration across positions means no optical or mechanical reconfiguration when swapping lenses on a rigged camera. CF construction reduces per-lens weight compared to XEEN aluminium. The 85mm T1.5 covers the portrait-to-short-telephoto position in the set.
Test the de-clicked aperture ring for smooth operation without mechanical resistance. Check focus gear engagement with follow-focus units (verify pitch matches your system). Test T-stop calibration against other XEEN CF lenses if in a matched set. Inspect the CF barrel for impact damage or delamination. Test Canon EF electronic contacts for EXIF communication.
