Sirui Night Walker 55mm T1.2 Cinema Lens with E-Mount
Overview
The Sirui Night Walker 55mm T1.2 Cinema Lens with E-Mount is a telephoto spherical prime that covers Super 35 mm sensors. Telephoto focal lengths compress perspective and throw backgrounds well out of focus, letting camera operators isolate a subject from a busy environment or reach action at a distance. A T1.2 maximum aperture puts this among the fastest cine glass available, giving very shallow depth of field and workable exposure in low light, and the lens closes to T16. It uses an E-Mount with manual focus.
Features
Key Features
Telephoto Super 35 mm Coverage
The lens covers Super 35 mm sensors, projecting a 34.0 mm image circle. A telephoto field of view compresses distance and lifts a subject off its background, suiting clean singles and action reached from further back.
T1.2 Maximum Aperture
T1.2 puts this among the fastest cine glass available. Depth of field wide open is measured in inches at close range, which demands an experienced focus puller and rewards one with separation no slower lens produces. It closes to T16.
Focus & Handling
60 cm Minimum Focus
Mount & Rig Integration
0.8-Pitch Cine Gears
The lens carries 0.8-pitch cine gears, the standard pitch for follow focus units and lens motors. Compatibility with lens control systems lets a solo operator make consistent, repeatable focus pulls, or a camera assistant control the lens remotely.
79mm Front Diameter
The front element measures 79mm, which fits a compact matte box directly and steps up to a 114 mm clamp with an adapter ring. Matte box fit follows from this measurement rather than from the filter thread, since the clamp grips the outside of the barrel.
