Lens Overview — 7artisans 12mm f/2.9 Cinema

The 7artisans Vision 12mm T2.9 is a manual-focus cinema prime lens built for full-frame mirrorless cameras. With a fixed focal length of 12mm and a maximum aperture of T2.9, it sits in the wide-angle category and is well suited to cinematographers and videographers who need a fast, wide field of view. The lens is available in five mount options — Sony E, Canon RF, Nikon Z, L-Mount, and Micro Four Thirds — making it a genuinely versatile option across a broad range of mirrorless systems.

As a cine-type lens, it prioritizes manual operation, with no autofocus and no image stabilization, placing control firmly in the operator's hands. The 82mm filter thread allows for direct attachment of filters without additional adapters. Weighing 674g, it offers a relatively manageable form factor for a full-frame wide-angle cinema prime.

There is no optical image stabilization, which is a standard omission for a lens of this type focused on manual cinema workflows. The cine designation and manual focus design make it a deliberate tool for those already working within a controlled production setup rather than a run-and-gun hybrid shooter.
