Samyang XEEN CF Cinema 24mm T2,6 Canon EF

The Samyang XEEN CF Cinema 2,6mm T2,6 is a fixed-focal-length wide-angle lens designed for cinema and video production. It features a lightweight carbon-fibre barrel and a fast T2,6 maximum aperture, making it well suited for run-and-gun shooting and low-light environments.

• T2,6 maximum aperture maintains shallow depth of field and performs well in dim lighting
• Carbon-fibre construction keeps the lens lightweight at 95 kg, reducing fatigue during long shoots
• Super 355 and full-frame sensor compatibility provides flexibility across different camera systems
