Xeen Meister 24mm T1.3 PL – Superbright T1.3 Full-Frame Cine Prime Supporting 8K
The Xeen Meister 24mm T1.3 PL is a superbright full-frame cine prime lens designed to support 8K resolution. It delivers a T1.3 maximum aperture for low-light shooting and an extremely shallow depth of field. The lens is available in PL, Canon EF, and Sony E mounts and includes design features that support professional production workflows.
Outstanding image resolution and 8K support
Xeen Meister lenses offer unprecedented resolution across the image, and the 24mm supports 8K on full-frame cameras. This makes the lens suitable for high-resolution capture and projects where image detail across the frame is critical.
Fast T1.3 aperture for low light and cinematic look
The widest stop of T1.3 lets you shoot in low-light conditions while producing a cinematic look with extremely shallow depth of field. The bright aperture also helps maximize dramatic effects and isolate subjects for expressive storytelling.
Bokeh and aperture design
The lens uses 13 aperture blades to create natural-looking, rounded bokeh. This blade count helps render smooth out-of-focus highlights and supports delicate expression in portrait and narrative work.
Design, materials and usability
Xeen Meister adopts premium materials and a crafted design. The front barrel uses titanium to increase durability while maintaining a high-quality finish. The lens uses a 114mm standard front diameter and unified positions for the aperture and focus gear rings, which simplifies attaching and removing accessories such as matte boxes or follow focus systems.
All scales, including focal length and aperture values, appear on both sides of the lens. The markings use a luminous font that glows in the dark, enabling quick verification and operation even in low-light environments. In addition, a 300° wide focus gear rotation angle provides fine, minute adjustments when pulling focus.
Metadata support and mounts
The PL mount version supports i/Technology protocol, allowing compatible cameras to automatically record accurate lens metadata. This feature streamlines production and post-production workflows by making lens data available for editorial and color work. The lens is offered in three mount options: PL, Canon EF, and Sony E.
