The Laowa Sword Cine 4-Lens Bundle includes four cine lenses — 25mm, 35mm, 60mm, and 100mm — designed for professional cinematography on Super 35 cameras. Each lens features a fast T2 maximum aperture, allowing excellent low-light performance and precise control over depth of field when you need it. The set focuses on consistency and usability to speed up workflows on set.
All four lenses share the same gear positions, focus rotation, and an 80mm front diameter. This uniformity lets camera crews swap lenses quickly without re-placing follow focus gears or matte boxes. As a result, you save time during production and reduce the chance of setup errors between takes.
The Sword series uses an all-metal cine housing built to withstand demanding production environments. In addition, the Arri PL mount ensures compatibility with industry-standard cinema cameras that accept PL mounts. Together, these features make the set suitable for professional narrative, commercial, and documentary shoots.
The lenses deliver sharp image quality with minimal focus breathing. You will find smooth, predictable manual focus and aperture control across the set, which helps maintain visual continuity and makes precise adjustments during shooting straightforward. Color-matched optics allow seamless intercutting between focal lengths.
Use this bundle for narrative filmmaking, commercials, and documentary productions where a matched set of focal lengths and consistent handling are important. The combination of fast aperture and color-matched optics makes the set a practical choice for projects that demand cinematic results and efficient on-set operation.

Question: Will these lenses work on my cinema camera?
Answer: The lenses use an Arri PL mount, which is compatible with industry-standard cinema cameras that accept PL mounts. If you are unsure whether your camera accepts PL, verify the mount type on your camera or with your rental provider before purchasing.
Question: Do these lenses cover full-frame sensors?
Answer: The Laowa Sword Cine lenses in this bundle are specified to cover Super 35 sensors. For cameras with larger sensors, check your camera’s sensor coverage requirements to confirm suitability.
Question: How do these lenses perform in low light?
Answer: Each lens offers a fast T2 maximum aperture, which provides improved low-light performance and the ability to achieve shallow depth of field when desired. This makes them suitable for situations requiring available-light shooting or controlled depth of field.
Question: What benefits does the matched set provide on set?
Answer: Because the lenses share gear positions, focus rotation, and an 80mm front diameter, they speed up lens changes and reduce reconfiguration time for accessories like follow focus systems and matte boxes. The color-matched optics also simplify intercutting between focal lengths.
Question: What accessories are included with the lenses?
Answer: The bundle ships with front and rear caps, a protective hard case, shims and adjustment tools, and a user manual so you receive a ready-to-use set that can be maintained and adjusted on set.
