What type of focus does this lens have?
It is a manual focus lens, designed for cinema. The focus ring has a rotation of 139 degrees, allowing precise and smooth control, ideal for video.
Is it compatible with my Canon camera?
The mount is Canon EF, so it is compatible with Canon EF-mount cameras, both full-frame and APS-C (though on the latter the angle of view will be narrower). It can also be used on other cameras with an adapter, but not included.
What does the T1.5 aperture mean?
The T1.5 aperture is the actual light transmission, indicating that the lens lets in a lot of light, similar to an f/1.4 aperture. This is excellent for shooting in low-light conditions and for achieving a smooth background blur.
Does it include image stabilization?
No, this lens does not have image stabilization. For video, it is recommended to use a stabilizer or tripod, or a camera with in-body stabilization.
