SLR Magic APO HyperPrime Cine 85mm T2.1 Overview

A cine-style lens that covers full-frame sensors, the SLR Magic APO HyperPrime CINE 85mm T2.1 Lens projects a 44mm image circle and is suitable for use with select cameras that have a 6K sensor. It features cine-style focus and iris gears and an internal focus design that allows you to pull focus without the length of the lens changing. This makes it well-suited for use with rod-mounted lens accessories and matte boxes.

The 300° of focus rotation provides for precise focus pulls especially when working at close focus. The lens focuses in the industry standard direction and has a 95mm front diameter. The front of the lens does not rotate as you change focus, which may allow for the use of clip-on matte boxes and sunshades (depending on weight), as well as polarizing filters. The lens incorporates an ARRI PL mount that provides a simple, strong, and highly reliable mount.

Coverage
The lens covers full-frame sensors.
Internal Focus
The internal focus design allows you to pull focus without the length of the lens changing. This is especially important when working with rod-mounted lens accessories such as follow focus units so that the gears remain engaged as focus changes. The consistent lens length also makes using a rod-mounted matte box simpler, as there is no concern for pushing into or pulling out of the matte box, and you don't need a bellows-style anti-reflection ring.
Industry Standard Focus and Iris Gears
Built-in iris and focus gears follow industry standards, allowing you to work with optional follow focus units and lens gear motors.
300° of Lens Rotation
300° of focus rotation enables precise focus adjustment, especially as you focus close to the lens.

SLR Magic APO HyperPrime Cine 85mm T2.1 Reviews

Lovely lens!

Awesome tele lens. Many of the things I mentioned in my review of the 50mm APO also apply to this lens, so check that out for more details. Only 2 real differences when compared to the 50mm and 25mm. Firstly, the 85mm has very little vignetting when wide open when shooting Vista Vision/Fullframe (something that is quite noticeable on both the 50mm and 25mm). Secondly, the 85mm does have more noticeable focus breathing when racking compared to the other APO lenses. Nowhere near as much focus breathing as the Sigma 50mm and 50-100mm lenses, but it is there. The focus breathing is the only thing that prevents this lens from being a true cine lens star.
