Cine lens for Sony E-mount
The Samyang 24mm T1.5 Cine Lens is built for film and video work on Sony E-mount cameras. It covers full-frame sensors and uses an optical design of 13 elements in 12 groups, including four low-dispersion and two aspheric elements. Ultra Multi Coating reduces ghosting and flare during production.
Filmmakers needing manual control
The lens suits operators who want industry-standard gear rings on both focus and iris for follow-focus systems. The de-clicked aperture ring allows smooth exposure changes while recording, and side-mounted scales let a focus puller read marks without moving behind the camera. Photographers who rely on autofocus or electronic aperture control should consider a different lens.
24mm focal length and T1.5 aperture
At 24mm the lens delivers a wide-angle view on full-frame; on APS-C sensors with a 1.5 to 1.6 crop factor the field of view matches roughly 38mm in full-frame terms. The bright T1.5 transmission stop supports low-light shooting and shallow depth of field, making it the key spec for deciding if this lens fits the project.

Questions about this item
How do I mount the Samyang 24mm T1.5 Cine lens on a Sony E-mount camera and which step do people forget?
Align the red dot on the lens barrel with the red dot on the camera mount, twist clockwise until it clicks, then remove the rear cap; the step often missed is taking off the rear cap before shooting.
What maintenance will this cine lens need over time?
Clean the front and rear glass with a microfibre cloth and blower; the de-clicked aperture ring and geared focus ring have no user-serviceable parts and require no lubrication.
What optical limit appears first during sustained wide-open video use?
With the aperture at T1.5 you may see slight corner vignetting and mild flare when pointing at strong light sources, both reduced by stopping down.
