The Tokina 50mm T1.5 Cinema Vista Prime Lens is an LPL-mount lens with focus scales marked in feet, providing an image circle that more than covers full-frame sensors and is designed to provide sharp images even when recording images at 8K resolution. It has a 50mm focal length and shares the same form factor, lens gear position, focus rotation, and front barrel diameter as the other Tokina Cinema Vista prime lenses, making on-set lens changes a fast and efficient operation. Its maximum T-stop of 1.5 is useful when shooting in low-light situations or when you want to capture that exceedingly shallow depth of field look.
The 9-bladed iris provides round out-of-focus highlights for a natural-looking bokeh. The lens barrel features approximately 300° of rotation from close focus to infinity; this gives you a high degree of precision when pulling focus. The lens is designed to minimize focus breathing, and it features geared manual focus and iris rings. Markings on both sides of the lens barrel make it readable from either side of the camera. The lens features an LPL mount, and the front is 114mm in diameter with a built-in 1/4"-20 support foot that helps support the lens with the aid of an optional 1/4"-20 rod-mounted lens support (not included).
