Rokinon AF 135mm F1.8 Lens for Sony E Full Frame
Category: rokinon lenses
The lens offers fast and quiet autofocus (AF) performance, coupled with well-controlled breathing, making it an excellent choice for shooting video. The Focus Hold Button on the lens allows you to lock the focus at the current distance, which can be particularly useful when you want to maintain focus on a specific subject. You can even assign functions such as Eye AF in the camera's settings to further enhance the autofocus capabilities.
The lens also features a custom switch, which gives you the ability to silently adjust the aperture by rotating the focus ring. This can be a valuable feature, especially when you want to make subtle exposure changes during a shoot without drawing attention to the camera. Using the optional Lens Station, you can customize the mode of this custom switch to suit your personal preferences.
The Focus Range Limiter on the lens is only active in AF mode and can be quite useful when you have determined the distance to your subject. By moving the Focus Range Limiter forward or backward, you can select the appropriate focus range for your needs. There are three options available:
-
FULL: The AF range is set from the minimum focus distance of 0.69m to infinity. This setting is suitable for general shooting, but the AF search may take slightly longer.
-
0.69m - 2m: The AF range is limited to between 0.69m and 2m, which is ideal for close-up shooting.
-
1.5m - ∞: The AF range is set from 1.5m to infinity, making it suitable for normal shooting situations.
The lens also features an 11-blade diaphragm, which helps to create a smooth and attractive bokeh effect in the out-of-focus areas of the image. This can be particularly beneficial when shooting portraits or other subjects where you want to achieve a shallow depth of field.
Overall, the lens offers a versatile set of features that can help you capture high-quality video and images in a wide range of shooting scenarios. The fast and quiet autofocus, customizable controls, and advanced focus range limiter make it a compelling choice for both professional and amateur photographers and videographers.
