Developed for photography and videography
This lens from Samyang was developed for the high demands of videographers and photographers. The aperture can be infinitely adjusted from T/1.5 to T/22, the focus adjustment is smooth and easy. This enables smooth focus tracking as well as changing the aperture, especially when shooting video. The aperture ring and focus ring have a gear ring and are therefore optimized for use with follow focus systems. The distance and aperture scales are located on the side for better legibility.
Versatile portrait focal length for moving and still images
With its focal length of 85 mm, the Samyang 85/1.5 lens is an ideal lens for documentary and reportage photography. It offers a wide range of design options for creative photo and film work. The outstanding speed of T/1.5 enables excellent shots even in less favorable lighting conditions.
High-quality workmanship
The lens has a very high-quality design. The metal housing is very robust and impresses with its elegant appearance. The glass lenses of the lens are coated and therefore provide an excellent contrast and sharpness range as well as a balanced color balance in the image. The particularly high-quality optics of the lens ensure optimum image results. The lens hood prevents light entering from the side and lens reflections.
Advantages of a full-frame lens on a camera with an APS-C sensor (or smaller)
Save time in post-processing: A large number of lens errors such as distortion, edge blur or vignetting occur on the outer areas of the image. If you use a lens calculated for full format on a camera with an APS-C sensor, these areas are not used at all. This ensures maximum quality. Additional post-processing time to correct lens errors is therefore not required.
Why the aperture is sometimes specified in T
In photography, the abbreviation "f" is used for aperture (from "focal length"). The specified value indicates the ratio between the focal length and the entrance pupil on the lens. In the film and video sector, on the other hand, the abbreviation "T" is used, which stands for "transmission". This value is calculated from the aperture f and the light loss in the respective lens. It indicates the net brightness of the image that hits the sensor. This makes it possible to change the lens when filming: as long as the "T-Stop" is selected the same for both lenses, it is guaranteed that two shots filmed with different lenses of the same subject will be equally bright. This way, there are no jumps in brightness when they are merged in the edit.
