    Overview

    The Mir-11 (m) 12.5 mm f/2.2 is a compact cine lens originally for 16mm film, now adaptable to Micro Four Thirds cameras. Optically, it delivers a soft, dreamy look wide open with blooming highlights, improving by f/2.8 and sharp by f/4. Weaknesses include visible vignetting at all apertures and softness at f/2.2. Build features a stepless aperture ring and 270° focus throw, though focus can be stiff. It suits videographers seeking a vintage, low-contrast aesthetic on BMPCC or similar small-sensor cameras.
