Fast Samyang cinema portrait lens at 85mm T1.5, exceptional bokeh with cinema controls at budget pricing.
The Samyang 85mm T1.5 AS IF UMC is a fast portrait cinema lens for Canon EF mount with cinema-standard T-stop markings and de-clicked aperture for video production. The T1.5 aperture is exceptionally fast for a portrait lens, providing extraordinary subject isolation and low-light capability.
The 85mm focal length is the classic portrait perspective, and the T1.5 speed creates extremely shallow depth of field with beautiful creamy bokeh. Cinema T-stop markings indicate actual light transmission for accurate exposure matching, and the de-clicked aperture allows smooth iris changes during recording.
Build quality features a solid barrel with geared focus ring for follow focus system compatibility. The UMC (Ultra Multi Coating) provides excellent contrast and flare control, and the aspherical element helps maintain sharpness at the fast T1.5 aperture. Manual focus is standard for cinema use.
The Samyang 85mm T1.5 offers exceptional portrait and cinema capability at budget pricing on the used market. The fast T1.5 aperture, cinema controls, and quality optics provide capability that established cinema lens brands charge many times more to deliver.
