The Samyang Cine Kit for E-Mount helps you achieve smooth, controlled focus pulls while filming. It combines a well-built follow focus with a compact tripod holder and flexible construction to keep your hand parallel to the camera and reduce bumps during operation.
Adjusting focus with one hand directly on the lens while the camera is rolling can be challenging. It is difficult to create a smooth movement during a transition, and the camera can be destabilized or accidentally bumped.
With the Samyang Cine follow focus system, your hand stays parallel to the camera body. As a result, you can turn the lens ring with steadier, more controlled movements. This design makes it easier to place focus exactly where you want it during a take.
The kit fits all Samyang VDSLR FE lenses and the Samyang AF 24-70 f/2.8 and AF 135 f/1.8. If you want to use the follow focus with other lenses, you can attach those lenses by adding a separate gear ring (not included).
The compact tripod holder included in the kit simplifies attachment of the follow focus to a tripod or support rig. You can mount the follow focus on the 15mm rod and secure the assembly using the rod holder and Arca Swiss plate supplied with the tripod adapter.
If your lens does not accept the included seamless gear ring, you can add a compatible separate gear ring (sold separately) to enable use of the follow focus with other lens models. This flexibility lets you adapt the kit to different shooting setups and lens choices.

Question: Which lenses are directly compatible with the Samyang Cine Kit for E-Mount?
Answer: The kit fits all Samyang VDSLR FE lenses and the Samyang AF 24-70 f/2.8 and AF 135 f/1.8. These lenses will accept the included seamless gear ring and mount directly with the follow focus and tripod adapter.
Question: Can I use the follow focus with non-Samyang lenses?
Answer: Yes. For other lens models you will need a separate gear ring (not included). Once you attach a compatible gear ring to the lens, the follow focus can engage and operate normally.
Question: What does the tripod adapter provide, and how does it help during shooting?
Answer: The tripod adapter includes a rod holder and an Arca Swiss plate. Together they make it straightforward to mount and secure the follow focus assembly to tripods and support systems, keeping the system stable and aligned for smooth focus pulls.
Question: How does the follow focus improve focus adjustments while recording?
Answer: The follow focus positions your hand parallel to the camera, which reduces camera movement and makes it easier to execute steady, controlled rotations of the lens focus ring. This helps you achieve precise focus transitions without destabilizing the camera or risking accidental bumps.
