Fast Samyang cinema 35mm T1.5 for Canon EF with Mark II coatings and cine gearing.
The Samyang 35mm T1.5 AS UMC II is a fast cinema lens for Canon EF mount, providing the popular 35mm focal length with a fast T1.5 aperture for low-light filmmaking. The Mark II revision brings improved coatings and reduced focus breathing over the original, enhancing cinema suitability.
The lens features cinema-standard gear rings for follow-focus systems, de-clicked aperture for smooth iris transitions, and calibrated T-stop markings. The UMC multi-coating controls flare effectively. The fast T1.5 enables shooting in available light conditions that slower lenses cannot handle.
Build quality is solid with an all-metal barrel and cinema-oriented features. The manual focus ring has smooth damping suited to controlled focus pulls. The lens is part of Samyang's VDSLR cinema range, designed to provide matched colour and character across focal lengths for consistent multi-lens productions.
On the used market, the Samyang 35mm T1.5 II offers fast cinema glass at budget pricing. For filmmakers wanting a fast thirty-five with professional cinema features on Canon cameras, it provides the handling and speed that indie productions need without the cost of premium cinema brands.
