Meike FF-Prime Cine 35mm T2.1 Reviews

Heavy & Powerful!

This lens is an excellent entry into the world of cinematic filming. Great reproduction of color. Focus takes a little getting used to with the amount of focal range. Overall great lens!

Perfect Intro Cine Lens!

This is a perfect step up from photo lenses into Cine lenses. If your wondering if you will see a difference between a set of Sigma Art glass and this... You will! I personally think the falloff and flaring on these lenses are perfect for the Modern/vintage blend with a slightly warmer tone then DZO Primes I find these to be a little more welcoming to skin tones. If you're wondering if this is worth the price tag. I'd say so!

work with SLR Magic Anamorphot-65 1.33x Anamorphic Adapter?
Asked by: ROEY
The adapter features a rear 82mm thread, and it mounts seamlessly on the SLR Magic Micro Primes. Working in collaboration with Fujifilm, SLR Magic has optimized the adapter to work with the Fujinon MK series of zooms, and when used with the Fujinon MK 50-135mm zoom. - https://www.slrmagic.com/anamorphot-65133x

Work with Panasonic s5?
Asked by: ROEY
Yes, the Meike 35mm T2.1 FF-Prime Cine Lens (L-Mount) (B&H# MEFF35T21L) utilizes an L-mount bayonet to connect to cameras with an L-mount such as the Panasonic Lumix S5 Mirrorless Camera (B&H# PADCS5): https://bhpho.to/3P1TE0P Since this is an entirely manual lens, aperture (i.e. iris) and focus are controlled by the camera operator (or a motorized servo system, if one is added) twisting the aperture and focus rings on the lens. No EXIF lens data (such as lens model, focal length, or aperture settings) will be automatically recorded by any camera using this lens.

Can you use this on a S35 sensor? And if so how does this change the focal length?
Asked by: Jesse
Yes you could use this on a S35 sensor size. Super 35 sensors will add a 1.5x magnification to the lens. This 35mm lens would look like a 52mm view when used on crop sensor S35 cameras.

What's the image quality between the full-frame version and the super 35 version, for say the pocket cinema 6k pro?
Asked by: Sheri
The image quality is approximately the same. the difference is that additional glass, "a 45mm image circle for full-frame sensor coverage" is added to the full frame version VS the 33.6mm image circle on the super 35 version.

Does this really have a 90mm outer diameter? I thought that it was 85mm but the item description says 90mm. Is this a mistake?
Asked by: Robert
The product has a 90mm front diameter and an 82mm filter thread, as that thread is found on the inner part of the front end of the lens.
