Rokinon Cine DS 135mm T2.2 135mm
The 135mm T2.2 ED UMC lens provides full-frame coverage with a fast T2.2 aperture and a 9-blade diaphragm for controlled bokeh, making it a strong telephoto option for shallow depth-of-field work. Its unified focus and aperture gear positions across the Cine DS line, combined with de-clicked aperture control, allow for seamless lens swaps on a rig. This lens is best for independent filmmakers and videographers needing an affordable, manual-focus telephoto prime with consistent handling for narrative or interview setups.
