135mm T2.2 Cine Lens for EF
The Rokinon XEEN 135mm T2.2 is a full-frame cinema lens built for Canon EF mounts. It targets professional filmmakers and camera operators who need consistent optical performance across a matched set. The all-metal construction provides durability for daily production use while remaining lighter than many competing designs. Its 6K-ready optics deliver the resolution demanded by modern digital cinema cameras.
Unified Focus and Iris Gearing
Both focus and iris rings share identical gear positions across the XEEN series, allowing fast lens swaps without repositioning follow-focus or iris motors. The focus ring rotates 200 degrees for precise manual control, while the iris ring turns 40 degrees with clickless T-stop adjustments. An 11-blade diaphragm produces round, natural bokeh highlights. The 114mm non-rotating front diameter accepts standard matte boxes and filter trays directly.
Close Focus and Portrait Reach
The 135mm focal length suits tight portraits and interview framing with minimal facial distortion. Internal focusing lets the lens breathe minimally while holding a constant length, and the minimum focus distance reaches 2.6 ft (0.6m) for tight inserts. The T2.2 maximum aperture yields shallow depth of field on full-frame sensors. Shooters needing wider angles or faster apertures will need other lenses in the series.

Questions about this item
Should I choose the 135mm T2.2 or a different focal length in the XEEN series?
The 135mm focal length is designed for portrait work at a distance that minimises distortion, with a T2.2 aperture that creates shallow depth of field for subject isolation.
What does the T2.2 aperture mean when I am shooting on a full-frame camera?
T2.2 transmits the same light as an f/2.2 lens, giving bright exposure and a narrow angle of view that separates the subject from the background on a full-frame sensor.
How does the Canon EF mount affect focus and iris operation on this lens?
The EF mount carries the unified 200-degree focus throw and 40-degree iris rotation, so focus and aperture markings align across the XEEN range for consistent follow-focus use.
