Rokinon 50mm T1.5 Cine DS EF-Mount Lens Rental in Surrey, BC
A manual-focus 50mm cine prime for EF-mount cameras, with a de-clicked iris from T1.5 to T22 and geared focus and iris rings that take a follow focus. At 50mm it frames a natural-looking interview or medium shot, and at T1.5 it handles low light with shallow focus. It focuses down to 0.45 m, weighs 575 g and takes 77mm filters. It's part of our Cine DS set with the 24, 35 and 85, and goes on a Sony E-mount or Canon RF camera with our EF adapters.

Good to know
- The front and rear caps, the petal hood and a 77mm UV filter are in the case.
- It's manual focus only, with focus and T-stop scales on both sides of the barrel.
- The gears sit in the same place on our 24, 35, 50 and 85mm Cine DS lenses, so a follow focus stays put when you swap.
- There are no electronic contacts, so some cameras need their shutter lock setting changed before they'll record.
- It's EF mount. On a Sony E-mount camera add our EF to E-mount adapter, and on Canon RF the EF to RF adapter.
