Description — Tokina 25mm T1.5
The Tokina 25mm T1.5 Cinema Vista Prime is a professional cinema lens built around a 25mm fixed focal length and a calibrated T1.5 maximum aperture, delivering reliable and consistent light transmission across productions. Designed for the full-frame format, it supports the latest generation of large-sensor cinema cameras and is available in PL Mount, Canon EF, Sony E, and Micro Four Thirds configurations, giving filmmakers meaningful flexibility when choosing or switching camera platforms. Focus operation is entirely manual, aligning with professional cinema standards where precise, repeatable focus pulls are essential.
The lens weighs 2.1 kg, reflecting its robust, production-grade construction — it is best suited to rigged or supported camera setups. With no image stabilization, the lens is designed to be used in conjunction with external stabilization solutions common in professional cinema environments. The wide-angle 25mm perspective makes it a strong candidate for environmental storytelling, establishing shots, and immersive framing where capturing a broad field of view is the priority.
