Create a shallow depth of field and dreamy bokeh with the 15-blade iris and lens construction of 14 elements in 9 groups. The focus ring rotates 211°, and the iris ring 92° for intuitive manual adjustments with low focus breathing.

The lens features a 75.2° angle of view to ensure your subject remains in the frame. An 80mm outer diameter and M77 filter thread are consistent across the lens series and allow you to incorporate different matte boxes or filters. Cine-standard gearing on the lens, adjustment shims, and a removable lens support thread make up the cine housing of the lens.
