Samyang XEEN CF 16MM T2.6 – 8K Carbon Fiber Cinema Lens

The new XEEN CF are full-frame cine lenses with excellent imaging performance and a carbon fibre body that makes them much lighter, much more compact and, in turn, much stronger. They feature unique X-Coating technology that gives images unwavering clarity and detail, which can be effectively controlled to create a distinctive, smooth, cinematic look – even with flare and ghosting for dramatic effects. The bright maximum aperture aperture combined with 11-blade diaphragms produce excellent low-light performance and beautiful bokeh.

XEEN CFs work with all large sensors of the latest film camera models and support 8K recording. They are compatible with PL, Sony E and Canon EF mounts. They can also be used on drones and stabilisers, providing flexibility of operation. The robustness and light weight of carbon fibre ensures long lens life and a modern, practical and stylish design.

With a carbon fibre barrel, the XEEN CF 16mm T2.6 is a lightweight yet tougher lens, weighing only 0.9kg and measuring just 82.3mm long. This compact size reflects and leads the latest trends in the film and video industry. It is ideal not only for large cinema cameras, but also for drone and stabiliser shooting that requires a more compact and lightweight lens. The XEEN CF is also compatible with large sensor cameras with its 43.3mm image circle. Now filmmakers can create countless images with a single lens, enjoying the flexibility and convenience of kit operation.
