Description — SLR Magic 50mm T0.95
The SLR Magic 50mm T0.95 HyperPrime Cine is a manual focus, Cine-type prime lens built exclusively for the Micro Four Thirds mirrorless camera system. Its defining specification is the T0.95 maximum aperture, one of the widest available for the MFT format, enabling shooting in very low ambient light. Classified under the Standard focal length range at 50mm, it is well-suited for a variety of subjects where a natural perspective is desired.
The lens features a 62mm filter thread, accommodating standard ND and other filters — a practical consideration when working at such a wide aperture in variable lighting conditions. With a weight of 490g, it offers a robust, cine-appropriate build. There is no image stabilization and no autofocus, making this a purely manual, video-centric tool.
For MFT shooters building a cine lens kit or seeking maximum light-gathering performance in a manual-focus prime, the HyperPrime Cine 50mm T0.95 occupies a distinctive position in the MFT lens ecosystem.
