The Rokinon 50mm f/1.4 AS IF UMC Lens for Sony E-Mount presents a standard 50mm focal length suitable for full-frame cameras, featuring a rapid f/1.4 maximum aperture that enhances performance in low-light conditions, facilitates fast shutter speed photography, and allows for precise control over shallow depth of field. When mounted on an APS-C format sensor camera, it provides a 35mm equivalent focal length of 75mm.
This lens is constructed with an optical design comprising 9 elements arranged in 6 groups, which includes one hybrid aspherical element and one aspherical element aimed at minimizing chromatic aberrations. Additionally, the lens elements are treated with an Ultra Multi-Coating to enhance light transmission while reducing flare and ghosting effects. The eight diaphragm blades form a circular aperture, contributing to aesthetically pleasing out-of-focus highlights.
Designed for manual focus and aperture control, the lens features a broad, rubberized focus ring along with clearly marked aperture, distance, and depth of field indicators. Its internal focusing mechanism ensures that the lens length remains unchanged during focusing, and it comes with a petal-shaped lens hood that effectively blocks extraneous light and safeguards the lens.
