Expanding its series of ultra-fast f/1.2 optics for mirrorless cameras, Rokinon has revealed an all-manual 35mm f/1.2 ED AS UMC CS Lens for Canon EF-M, Fujifilm X, Micro Four Thirds, and APS-C Sony E cameras. This lens provides shooters with a fast normal-length lens equivalent to about 52.5mm on APS-C systems, or a short telephoto 70mm with the Micro Four Thirds cameras. The f/1.2 maximum aperture will help shooters work in low light, as well as create images with extremely shallow depth of field. Also, the lens incorporates one ED and two aspherical elements to combat aberrations and maximize quality at all aperture settings. Additionally, it uses an Ultra Multi-Coating to reduce the impact of flare and ghosting for a crisp, clean image.

The durable lens features completely manual operation, including a manual focusing ring and aperture ring located on the barrel for fast, intuitive control. The system permits focusing as close as 1.25' for getting tight shots of your subject. And along with all of this, a nine-blade aperture diaphragm will help produce smooth, circular bokeh.
