Tokina Cinema introduces the 25-75mm T 2.9 cinema lens. The new lens is a small size ground-up true cinema design featuring a compact 174mm overall length, industry standard 0.8 MOD cinema gears, T 2.9 iris, 86mm filter thread, and 95mm front diameter for common cinema accessories. The new 25-75mm T 2.9 is designed to cover super35+ type sensors up to 36mm image circle size. The larger 36mm image circle enables native coverage of RED Helium 8K, RED Dragon 6K, RED Monstro 6K, Alexa LF in 4K UHD, as well as popular cinema and mirrorless cameras from Canon, Blackmagic Design, and Panasonic in 4K DCI or 4K UHD.
When paired with the Tokina Cinema 1.6 x Expander for PL mount version, the lens becomes a compact size 40-120mm T 4.2 that covers Full Frame and Vista Vision 6K and 8K size sensors. The 25-75mm is designed to match the mechanical and optical properties of the popular Tokina Cinema 50-135mm T 2.9 MKII and 11-20mm T 2.9 zoom lenses. The 25-75mm retains optical design features similar to the 11-20mm T 2.9 and 50-135mm T 2.9 MKII including parfocal design to retain focus while zooming, limited focus breathing, and low distortion.
