Update your cinema lens set with this 85mm T1.5 DSX High-Speed Cine Lens from Rokinon that comes in a Sony E mount. The DSX continues the line with the same multilayer coating process, industry-standard geared focus and iris rings, and fast T1.5 aperture, and it adds a 9-blade iris for beautiful soft bokeh, weather sealing to keep the moisture out, and focal lengths on both sides for added versatility for focus pullers.
This 85mm lens produces a 28.4° coverage when used with full-frame cameras. Aspherical lenses render sharply defined images with a minimum of distortion and chromatic aberrations, with a minimum focus distance of 3.6' from the lens. The 9-blade iris also allows you to create up to a stunning 18-ray starburst when you're stopped all the way down.
A removable petal-shaped lens hood provides flare protection when shooting without a matte box, and the lens' threaded front accepts a 72mm filter ring.

Rokinon 85mm T1.5 Cine DSX Reviews
Great for beginners
I bought this as my introduction into Cine style lenses, and overall I think it was a great investment. The lens has nice weight to it, and fluid focus/aperture rings. It's a little soft when wide open, but that gives a nice "artsy" look sometimes. At 85MM it's a nice portrait/telephoto focal length. One large flaw, the minimal focusing distance. It's around 3 feet, and that could make certain compositions difficult, but at the price, that's a small take away.
Excellent!
A really high quality lens, which gives a very special texture to the images. I'm going for other glasses from the same series. 24mm and 35mm.
A head to head competitor with the Canon Cine RF that wins!
If you currently shoot the Canon or Nikon prime lenses, you are in for an upgrade at 1/4 the price. This lens is extremely sharp edge to edge, virtually no halos. The boca is more desirable than any other lens we have seen for under $25K. If you didn't know it you would use the lens then watch the video and think you were filming on a lens costing thousands more. At T1.5 it is completely sharp and amazing. Very solid. Very well built. It works great for stills as well, sharper, better that our Canon RF primes 100% of the time. I love Canon Products but this stomps them in the Cine lens department and for video, the USM lenses are lack luster at best. Give it a shot, you will thank me and B&H.
