The SLR Magic Cine 17mm T1.6 Lens with MFT Mount for BMPCC supports Cine Style shooting on the BMPCC. Although it features an MFT mount, it will vignette if used on cameras with a Micro Four Thirds-sized sensor. It features a fast T1.6 to T11 aperture range with a clickless iris that allows smooth pulls, and geared focus and aperture rings.
The lens follows the industry standard focus rotation, so when working with an optional follow focus unit there is no need to make an adjustment to how you work or add a reversing gear. It has also been designed to support the weight of an optional Achromatic Diopter without a lens support. Please note, to avoid vignetting only use the combination on a BMPCC camera with 77mm filters.
