Meet the new Samyang V-AF line-up, specially designed for videography!
The Samyang V-AF series of cine lenses will be further expanded by four additional lenses at the end of this year and the end of next year. These are also all ultra-light, compact and with high-quality autofocus. By the end of 2023, the entire Samyang V-AF cine lens range will consist of a 20mm T1.9, 24mm T1.9, 35mm T1.9, 45mm T1.9 and the now introduced 75mm T1.9.
Unified Form Factor – Compact & Light
The V-AF increases compatibility with gimbals and drones by applying the unified form factors with its 5 different focal lengths (Ultra-Wide to Medium-tele). By providing a compact size of 73 X 70mm and a light-weight of less than 300g, there is no need to re-set the equipment when changing the lenses.
Tally Lamp - Excellent usability
The lamp located on the front and mount index helps the user to check whether a video is recorded or not while shooting. It supports video content creation more conveniently even in a small space without a lot of equipment.
Support 8K and the same color tone
The new V-AF series supports resolutions up to 8K in a small and lightweight form, which is well suited for use with handheld gimbals and drones, as well as for studios and location productions. All lenses within the new V-AF series are color-matched to avoid shifts when swapping lenses, and the 9 aperture blades allow for a natural-looking bokeh.
Custom Switch & Button
Features the 'Focus save' function usually in professional cine equipment and custom mode that adds function by firmware, which provides video-specific functions for students and amateur users who dream of cinematographers. For example, aperture control via MF focus ring, Linear MF (300 gr) and Cine AF can be set using the optional Samyang Lens Station.
