Tokina 25-75mm T2.9 Cinema Canon EF – midrange cinema zoom with fast T2.9 aperture

Designed from the ground up for cinema cameras, the Tokina 25-75mm T2.9 delivers sharp resolution while maintaining beautiful flares and nearly zero focus breathing. This midrange zoom gives you a flexible focal range in a relatively small package, making it a practical option to stay mounted on your camera for many shoots.

Why filmmakers choose this lens

First, the lens covers a broad range of focal lengths that suit multiple shooting situations. As a result, you can use it as a single lens to live on your camera for run-and-gun setups, documentary work, or controlled productions that demand fast access to different focal lengths.

Second, Tokina designed the 25-75mm to keep focus and zoom behavior predictable. It shows almost no focus breathing and controlled distortion, characteristics that filmmakers rely on to keep matches between focus racks and zooms consistent. Thus, you gain creative control without unexpected image shifts.

Design compatibility and workflow benefits

The 25-75mm shares the same front diameter and gear positions as Tokina’s 11-20mm and 50-135mm MKII lenses. Therefore, you can maintain consistent rigging, follow focus setups, and matte box positioning when you pair these lenses on a shoot.

Moreover, the lens features a 36mm image circle that covers all current Super35+ digital formats. It also covers 4K DCI on all full frame digital cameras. For detailed camera pairings, see our camera compatibility chart below or contact us for specifics.
