Irix Cine Lens 21mm T1.5 for Canon EF (Metric)

Overview

Unleash your creativity with the 21mm lens. It’s wide enough to capture expansive scenes, yet not too wide to introduce noticeable distortion. This focal length preserves natural proportions, ensuring your subject looks exactly as you see it—unlike wider lenses that alter perception.

The bright T1.5 aperture unlocks endless possibilities, allowing you to shoot comfortably in low light without cranking up the ISO. Plus, the weather-sealed construction ensures reliable performance, no matter the shooting conditions.

As the widest lens in our T1.5 series, it perfectly complements the 30mm and 45mm options. Its consistent aperture allows seamless transitions between lenses, ensuring uniform brightness, color, and contrast. With this 21mm, you’ll also enjoy incredible bokeh, adding depth and character to your visuals.

Cine lenses are about more than precision—they offer a distinct aesthetic that gives your work a unique edge. Irix lenses bring their own signature cinematic style, known as the “Irix look.”

Featuring rounded aperture blades and a shallow depth of field, this lens beautifully isolates your subject from the background. Its bokeh draws soft, artistic contours, enhancing your subject’s presence. The gentle highlights and subtle haze soften light streaks, delivering breathtaking visuals in every shot.
