    Overview

    The Samyang 35mm T/1.3 ED AS UMC CS is a compact cine lens for APS-C mirrorless cameras, weighing 430g and measuring 73.6mm. Its optical design includes two aspherical elements and Ultra Multi Coating, but no specific optical strengths or weaknesses are detailed in the excerpts. Build and handling are praised: the de-clicked aperture ring provides smooth T-stop transitions, and the geared focus and iris rings are easy to use with follow-focus systems. The lens suits videographers needing a fast, lightweight cine lens for Sony E, MFT, Fujifilm X, and Canon M mounts.
