High-quality optical design
The Tokina Cinema 50-135mm T3.0 EF is a cinema lens designed for cropped sensor/Super 35mm cameras with the Canon EF mount. Key features include:
All-Metal Cinema Housing. Tokina has constructed an all-metal housing with standard 0.8 pitch geared focus, aperture, and zoom rings to contain the Cinema 50-135mm T3.0 EF’s all-new video-centric optical design.
Telephoto Zoom. With a full-frame focal length roughly equivalent to 80-216mm, the Tokina Cinema 50-135mm T3.0 EF covers a solid telephoto range. Its fast T3.0 aperture enables low-light capture and subject/background separation.
High-Quality Optics. The 50-135mm has eighteen elements in fourteen groups, using aspherical and Super Low-Dispersion glass elements to reduce chromatic aberration and provide maximum resolution for 4K video capture, all in a parfocal design that maintains focus throughout the zoom.
Fully Manual Lens. This is a fully manual cinema lens that provides no electronic communication with the camera. You must manually make all aperture and focus adjustments on the lens itself, and lens information is not transferred through EXIF data.
