Samyang's XEEN 14mm T3.1 Lens is built specifically for use as a cinema lens. It features an internal focus design so that the lens does not change size while focusing, minimizing the appearance of breathing when changing focus. Each lens in the set is multi-coated for good contrast, glare prevention, and color-match to a factory standard, allowing you to assemble a set over time with minimal color shift. This 14mm lens provides what is considered an extremely wide angle of view on full-frame cameras, and a tighter angle of view on smaller formats.
The lens features dual sided focus scales marked in feet, with dual-sided iris scales. The 9-bladed iris provides a rounded aperture for natural looking highlights and bokeh. The lens is a manual focus and iris lens, and does not have auto focus or auto iris capability. It incorporates cinema-style focus and iris gears that share the same position across the lenses in the XEEN set. The common 114mm front diameter allows for quick lens changes when using a matte box and focus accessories. The focus ring rotates 200° from close focus to infinity. This gives you a high degree of precision when adjusting focus.
- This 14mm lens has an image circle that covers a full-frame sensor.
- The lens features metal construction and it incorporates a support that can help take strain off your camera's lens port.
- Dual right and left side focus and t-stop scales allow your focus puller to work from either side of the lens, without having to flip the lens in the mount, or facing upside numerals.
- Each lens in the XEEN series share common focus and iris gear ring positions.
- The non-rotating front allows you to use optional clip-on matte boxes.
- De-clicked aperture ring for smooth iris pulls.
- A minimum focusing distance of 10" allows you to get up close to your subject.

The 14mm XEEN lens is my third XEEN purchase. I also have the 24 T1.2 and 85 T1.2 lenses in the EF mount. I use these on my Blackmagic Broadcast G2 filming mostly 24p docs. All three produce gorgeous images and are the same quality. Silky smooth focus and clickless T stops make them a joy to use. The 14mm translates to about 20mm on my Super35 sensor. No distortion. Just the best. Highly recommend.

This entire line cannot be beat for the price. If you want a professional prime set for any video needs, from a corporate event to a full on movie shoot, these are the lenses. If you need better quality than this it's going to jump into a completely new ridiculous price range and at that point I just rent.
