Lens OverviewRokinon 24mm T1.5 ED AS IF UMC

The Rokinon 24mm T1.5 Cine Lens is a wide-angle prime designed specifically for cinema and video production. Built around a full-frame image circle, it covers a broad range of camera systems thanks to its availability in Canon EF, Sony E, Nikon F, Micro Four Thirds, and PL Mount configurations — making it a genuinely versatile option for cinematographers working across different bodies and rigs. The fast T1.5 maximum aperture is a standout characteristic for a wide-angle prime at this price point, enabling shooting in challenging low-light environments and giving filmmakers the ability to achieve a shallower depth of field even at 24mm.

Being a manual focus design, this lens is built with cinema workflow in mind from the ground up — follow focus systems and focus pullers will feel at home with the dedicated, geared focus ring typical of cine-oriented glass. With a 77mm filter thread, it accepts a wide range of industry-standard filters, including matte boxes and screw-on NDs. At 680g, it strikes a reasonable balance between build substance and portability on a cinema rig.

The prime design at 24mm suits wide establishing shots, environmental coverage, and immersive handheld work.

DescriptionRokinon 24mm T1.5 ED AS IF UMC

The Rokinon 24mm T1.5 Cine Lens is a prime, manual focus wide-angle lens built for cinema and video production. It covers a full-frame image circle and is offered in Canon EF, Sony E, Nikon F, Micro Four Thirds, and PL Mount variants, giving it exceptional versatility across professional cinema and mirrorless ecosystems. The T1.5 maximum aperture is well-suited for productions that demand low-light capability or creative depth-of-field control at wide angles.

As a manual focus design, it integrates naturally into cinema rigs and follow focus setups. The 77mm filter thread ensures compatibility with standard screw-on filters and many matte box systems. At 680g, the lens is substantial enough to feel robust on a rig without becoming unwieldy.

There is no image stabilization, so shooters working handheld may want to account for that in their rigging choices. The 24mm focal length in a prime configuration makes it a strong candidate for wide coverage, environmental storytelling, and cinematic establishing shots.
