Mitakon Zhongyi Speedmaster 50mm f/0.95 III Overview

Now in its third version, the Canon RF-mount Speedmaster 50mm f/0.95 III from Mitakon-Zhongyi is an exceptionally fast normal-length prime with enhanced flare resistance. Obviously distinguished by its f/0.95 maximum aperture, this lens excels in low-light situations and affords impressive control over depth of field. Its optical design incorporates one high refractive index element along with five ultra-low dispersion elements to produce well-corrected imagery void of spherical and chromatic aberrations. The lens's manual focus design permits working with subjects as close as 1.6' away and an 11-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality.

Normal-length prime is designed for use with full-frame Canon RF-mount mirrorless digital cameras and can also be used with APS-C models where it provides an 80mm equivalent focal length.
Fast f/0.95 maximum aperture benefits working in difficult lighting conditions and also enables extensive control over your focus position to benefit the use of selective focus and shallow depth of field techniques.
Five ultra-low dispersion elements and one high refractive index element helps to reduce chromatic aberrations and distortions throughout the aperture range for greater sharpness, clarity, and color accuracy.
Manual focus design utilizes a floating elements system to permit focusing on subjects as close as 1.6' away.
De-clicked, stepless aperture ring permits smooth, silent aperture adjustment to benefit video applications.
An 11-blade diaphragm contributes a pleasing out-of-focus quality when working with selective focus techniques.
All-metal lens barrel features engraved depth of field and focus scales. Additionally, a metal lens mount also offers increased durability between the lens and camera.

Ultra tight depth of field!

By Lyle
Rated 5 out of 5

Already own one of these for my Sony camera & wanted one for my Nikon Z. While it doesn’t auto focus it easily does tight focus & blurring the background for portraits. I used a Canon.095f in the long ago past when shooting night fires with a 16mm film for TV news. A handy tool!

Heavy Metal

You like heavy metal... then get ready to rock this glass on your next shoot! It is a fun fast/fast lens. Manual wide open is a style which changes how you approach and move (flow) for your shot. I would call it a budget lens with big result. Like any budget lens, the extremes are where they can fall short.... but using it for cinema with the 'results may vary' mindset, it is fun and unlocks all sorts of creative vision. The performance to price is a 10/10... and if your using it for cinema... a 12/10! It is an instant studio fav,

Does this lens trigger the focus point manual focus aid? To be clear, not talking about focus peaking, talking about the index point/matching arrows feature unique to the R series Canon cameras.
Asked by: Marc
The index point/matching arrows feature unique to the R series Canon cameras. You can also go into live view and magnify the image for accurate focus.

Does the lens work with a blackmagic cinema pocket 6K, is it any crop factor? I’m not sure about that mount from canon I usually get EF and those work great ..
Asked by: jefersson
The Blackmagic 6K uses the EF mount. The RF mount is canons new mount for mirrorless camera and can not be be adapted onto an EF mount because of the flange distances.
