Samyang V-AF lens Kit with MF Adapter and Hardcase

Samyang V-AF lens Kit with MF Adapter and Hardcase – Uniform size and weight for easy gimbal and drone use

This kit brings together three popular Samyang V-AF cine lenses, a manual-focus adapter and a protective B&W hardcase. The V-AF series is designed for video creators and uses a unified form factor across the lineup. As a result, the lenses share similar weight and size, which simplifies use with accessories such as gimbals or drones because you do not have to rebalance when swapping lenses.

Key benefits and design

The V-AF lenses target filmmakers and videographers who want video-friendly features in a compact package. Each lens in the series includes:

• Sony E-mount (Sony FE) compatibility.
• Gear cogs for follow focus integration.
• A tally lamp to indicate recording or standby status.
• A unified form factor so lenses maintain consistent weight and size across the range.

In addition, the lenses use a dynamic optical construction intended to deliver a cinematic look. A 9-bladed aperture produces smooth, creamy bokeh to help separate subjects from the background.

V-AF Manual Focus Adapter — control and compatibility

The included V-AF manual focus adapter converts autofocus lenses to a manual-focus workflow while adding useful cinema-style controls.

• Dual scale: displays both feet and meters for quick distance reference.
• Smooth 300° focus rotation for precise, repeatable adjustments.
• Industry-standard 0.8 mod gear on the focus ring, compatible with follow focus systems.
• Attaches to any V-AF lens using the front bayonet mount.
• When attached, the MF ring on the lens side can function as an aperture ring.
• A front tally lamp indicates whether the camera is recording or on standby.
• 95mm front diameter for easy matte box attachment.

Because the adapter is compact, it enables many cinema lens features in a smaller form factor. When combined with a V-AF series lens, the total weight is only 430 g, which simplifies handheld and stabilized setups compared to larger cinema lenses.

Samyang / B&W hardcase — protection and transport

The kit includes a B&W Outdoor Case designed for the Samyang V-AF lenses with custom foam inserts. The hardcase provides:

• Tough outer shell and a robust latching system to keep gear secure during transport.
• B&W’s exclusive locking and latching system to maintain closure until intentionally opened.
• Custom foam cut to fit Samyang V-AF T1.9 Sony FE lenses and accessories for organized storage.
