Tokina Vista 18mm T1,5 Cinema Lens

Tokina 18mm T1.5 Cinema Vista Prime Lens provides an image circle that more than covers full-frame sensors and is designed to provide sharp images even when shooting images with 8K resolution. This is an 18mm focal length lens and has the same form factor, lens shift position, focus rotation and front diameter as the other Tokina Cinema Vista prime lenses. This makes lens changes quick and efficient. It has a maximum T-stop of 1.5, useful for shooting in low light situations or when you want to capture the very shallow depth of field.

The 9-leaf iris provides round out-of-focus highlights for a natural bokeh. The lens barrel has approximately 300° rotation from near focus to infinity; This gives you a high degree of precision when you focus. The lens is designed to minimize focus breathing and has manual focus and iris rings. Markings on both sides of the lens tube make it legible from both sides of the camera.

Features
