7Artisans 35mm T2.0 Large Aperture Full Frame Cine
The T2.0 aperture and near-zero focus breathing deliver consistent exposure and stable framing for full-frame Canon RF cameras. Its 310-degree focus throw with a stepless gear ring provides precise, repeatable pulls for follow-focus systems, while the 1266g all-metal build adds substantial heft. This lens is best for indie filmmakers and video shooters needing a deliberate, manual cinema workflow on a budget.
