Lens OverviewDulens 31mm T2.4

The Dulens APO Mini Prime 31mm T2.4 is a manual-focus cinema prime lens built for the Super 35 format and fitted with a PL Mount. At 31mm, it sits comfortably in the standard focal length range, making it a versatile choice for a wide variety of cinematic applications — from documentary work to narrative productions. The maximum aperture of T2.4 provides a solid light-gathering capability, allowing cinematographers to work in moderately low-light conditions while achieving a controlled depth of field.

Weighing in at 460g, the APO Mini Prime is notably compact for a cinema lens, which can be a real advantage on handheld or gimbal-based rigs where balance and fatigue matter. The 72mm front filter thread opens up straightforward use of standard filtration. Image stabilization is not included, which is typical for cinema primes where stabilization is generally handled at the rig or camera level.

Focus is entirely manual, as expected for a lens in this category, giving the focus puller precise, tactile control. The PL Mount is the industry-standard cinema mount, ensuring broad compatibility across a wide range of cinema cameras configured for Super 35 shooting.

DescriptionDulens 31mm T2.4

The Dulens APO Mini Prime 31mm T2.4 is a PL Mount cinema prime designed for Super 35 format cameras. With a fixed 31mm focal length sitting in the standard range, it covers a natural field of view well-suited to a broad range of cinematic scenarios. The T2.4 maximum aperture delivers consistent, measurable light transmission — a key advantage when matching exposure across a set of cinema primes on a production.

At just 460g, this lens is impressively compact for a cine prime, making it a practical choice for operators working with gimbals, drones, or handheld rigs where weight distribution is critical. The 72mm filter thread allows for straightforward integration of standard on-lens filtration. Focus is fully manual, as is standard for cinema lenses, placing precise control in the hands of a focus puller.

There is no image stabilization, so stabilization should be addressed at the camera or rig level. The PL Mount ensures this lens integrates with the broader ecosystem of professional cinema camera platforms configured for Super 35 shooting.
