Rokinon 24mm T1.5 Cine DS Lens for Micro Four Thirds Mount

The Rokinon 24mm T1.5 Cine DS Lens for Micro Four Thirds Mount is a wide-angle cinema prime lens built for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras, offering a 48mm full-frame-equivalent focal length and a 47.6-degree angle of view on MFT sensors. Its fast T1.5 maximum aperture makes it well suited to interiors, environmental shots, establishing scenes, interviews, and other low-light filmmaking applications.

Optically, the lens is built from 13 elements in 12 groups, including hybrid aspherical lens elements that render sharply defined images while minimizing distortion and chromatic aberration. An 8-blade iris diaphragm, adjustable from T1.5 to T22, contributes to attractive, cinematic bokeh, and Rokinon’s Ultra Multi-Coating helps reduce flare and ghosting across the optical path.

As a fully manual cine-style lens, both focus and aperture are controlled directly on the barrel, with standard geared focus and iris rings shared across the entire Cine DS lineup, letting photographers swap lenses on the same rig without needing to reposition a follow-focus unit or iris motor. The aperture ring is de-clicked for smooth, stepless iris pulls during recording, and focus and T-stop scales are marked on both sides of the lens to accommodate focus pullers working from either side. The lens has a minimum focusing distance of 9.8 in. (0.25m), giving it reasonable close-focusing capability for a wide-angle cine prime.

Build quality centers on a durable, cine-style barrel construction, with a removable, petal-shaped lens hood included to help control flare and protect the front element when shooting without a matte box. The lens accepts a 77mm filter thread, measures approximately 3.27 in. (83mm) in maximum diameter, and weighs approximately 1.36 lb (615g).

As part of Rokinon’s broader Cine DS series, the 24mm T1.5 is also available in Canon EF, Nikon F, and Sony E mounts, with color-matched optics designed to minimize the need to adjust lighting or camera settings when switching between focal lengths in the same set.
