Description — SLR Magic 32mm T2.1 EF
The SLR Magic APO MicroPrime Cine 32mm T2.1 is a dedicated cinema prime lens built around the Canon EF mount. With a 32mm fixed focal length placing it firmly in the standard focal length range, it is well-suited to a broad spectrum of cine shooting scenarios. The lens opens to a maximum aperture of T2.1, providing solid light-gathering capability for interior and low-light video work.
Designed for the cinema and video camera system category, it operates as a manual focus only lens — no autofocus is present — which is the expected standard in professional cine production environments. The full-frame lens format means it delivers edge-to-edge coverage on full-frame sensors. An 82mm filter thread makes it compatible with a wide range of industry-standard matte boxes and filter systems, while the lens weighs 700g, offering a reasonably compact form factor within the cine prime class. Image stabilization is not included, consistent with its intended use on stabilized rigs and controlled production setups.
