Description — Sigma 35mm T2.5
The Sigma 35mm T2.5 FF Classic Cine Prime is a dedicated cinema lens designed for full-frame professional camera systems. Its 35mm fixed focal length places it in the standard range, offering a natural perspective well-suited to a wide variety of cinematic applications. The T2.5 maximum aperture delivers a true light-transmission measurement, ensuring exposure accuracy that cinematographers can rely on when working within a matched lens set.
Weighing 1,230g, this is a professional-grade optic built for structured cinema rigging rather than lightweight handheld use. Focus is manual only, conforming to standard cinema production workflows where a focus puller manages critical focus via a follow focus system. The lens is available in PL Mount, Canon EF, Sony E, and L-Mount configurations, providing meaningful flexibility across a broad range of cinema and mirrorless camera platforms.
The full-frame image circle ensures compatibility with larger sensor cameras without vignetting. There is no image stabilization, consistent with the expectations for a cinema prime intended for use on stabilized production equipment.
