Lens Overview — IRIX 150mm T3.0 Macro

The IRIX 150mm T3.0 Macro Cine Lens is a manual-focus prime lens designed for full-frame cinema work. Built around a fixed 150mm focal length and a maximum aperture of T3.0, it is purpose-built for macro cinematography and delivers a dedicated tool for close-up and detail-oriented shooting in professional video production. The lens mounts via PL Mount, making it compatible with a wide range of professional cinema cameras in the mirrorless camera system category.

With no image stabilization on board, it is engineered for use on stable rigs or gimbals where manual control is prioritized. The T3.0 aperture rating—a true transmission measurement rather than a simple f-stop calculation—offers cinematographers a reliable, repeatable exposure value when matching footage across multiple lenses on a production. Weighing in at 1,100g, this is a substantial piece of glass suited for professional rigging setups.

The 86mm filter thread accommodates standard cinema and photo filters, giving operators flexibility in their optical toolkit. As a prime lens covering the telephoto focal length range, the 150mm provides useful working distance for macro subjects, reducing the risk of disturbing sensitive setups. Altogether, this lens represents a focused, specialized option for cinematographers who need a dedicated macro prime in the telephoto range with industry-standard cinema lens characteristics.

Description — IRIX 150mm T3.0 Macro

The IRIX 150mm T3.0 Macro Cine Lens is a prime lens engineered specifically for macro cinematography, covering full-frame sensors with a fixed 150mm focal length in the telephoto range. Its maximum aperture of T3.0 is expressed as a true T-stop—a transmission-calibrated measurement that ensures consistent exposure values when integrating this lens into a multi-lens cinema production. The lens mounts via PL Mount, the professional cinema standard, and is classified for mirrorless camera systems.

With a manual focus design and no autofocus capability, it places full creative and technical control in the hands of the operator or focus puller. The 86mm filter thread enables use of a broad range of professional optical filters. Weighing 1,100g, this lens is built with the substance expected of a professional cinema prime and should be paired with appropriate support equipment.

There is no image stabilization, so stable mounting solutions are recommended for the sharpest results. For cinematographers seeking a dedicated macro prime with reliable T-stop calibration and full-frame coverage on a PL Mount platform, the IRIX 150mm T3.0 fills a focused and practical role in a professional lens kit.
