XEEN Meister 50mm T1.3 – Sony E mount

XEEN Meister 50mm T1.3 – Sony E mount

The XEEN Meister 50mm T1.3 is a premium standard cine prime lens of the XEEN Meister line by LK Samyang, designed for full-frame cameras (Ø 43.2 mm image circle) with resolution for 8K. The T1.3 maximum aperture allows very shallow depth of field and shooting in low light, and the 13-blade iris gives round bokeh and natural background blur. The proprietary X-Coating controls internal reflections, flare and ghosting. The lenses of the line are colour-matched across all focal lengths. This version has the Sony E mount, for cinema and video cameras with Sony E mount. Automatic lens metadata recording (/i Technology) is available only on the PL version.

The front part of the barrel is in titanium for strength and durability, and the barrel carries a laser-engraved XEEN Meister logo. The 114 mm front diameter and the same gear positions across the line make it quick to fit a matte box and follow focus. The focus ring turns through 300° for very fine focus pulls, and all scales, including focal length and aperture values, are shown on both sides with luminous paint that glows in the dark.
