[Full Frame] I have the 25 mm SLR and with this lens it works great for me in matching the colors in the edition, there is no color variation in the optics and the look that this optics gives you is something modern and vintage.

[T1.4] Love the look and texture the lens provides. Great build quality. Great Price. Replaced my Rokinons.

[Full Frame] I have both the 25mm and 50mm MicroPrime Cine lenses. Both are excellent manual lenses that work flawlessly on my Canon R5 with RF-EF adapter. I do a lot of product photography and video and to dial in focus is exactly what I need. Sure it is not autofocus, and isn't supposed to be, it is for those that want the ability of fine tuning detail and focus. The body is much higher quality metal than the plastic of the more expensive RF lenses. It is similar to zeiss lenses if you are familiar with those. I always color correct in post but the colors produced from the lenses seem consistent for my uses. The sharpness cannot be matched when combining these lenses with a 45mp sensor for photos and 8k video.

I have spent thousands in lenses in the past, but these are perfect for me at a much more reasonable cost than the alternative options.

[82 mm] It's true this new 2023 version is way better that previous version. I recently went to B&H with my old 25mm purchase 2022 and had a rep let me check out the 2023 version or new stock they had. I compared them and I realized the green cast was gone and it was brighter on the old 2022 version, the new one is even a bit sharper. I attached a image so you could see the difference.


I own the 25mm 32mm and 50mm. I'm going to pick up the 85mm later on this year.

[T1.4] Beautiful glass, gorgeous colors and breathing - Value for your dollar. If you got a z-cam - get this prime!

[1.905 lb] In my opinion, the SLR Magic APO Microprimes are the best budget cine lenses on the market. All of the competitors in this price range - DZO, Meike, Rokinon, Irix, Dulens, etc. - have one or more of these weaknesses: chromatic aberration, lens breathing, color cast, or bokeh that contains "onion skin" or is shaped in a way I don't find appealing. Only the SLR Magic APO lenses performs very well in all of these categories. Extremely limited CA, minor lens breathing, accurate colors with maybe a tinge of warmth, and a clean, beautiful bokeh. I tested an older version of the 25mm and it had a distinct green color
cast compared to its siblings, but this new 25mm that I purchased from B&H in Feb. 2023 has fixed that issue and now matches my 32mm, 50mm and 85mm. Wide open at T2.1 the lenses have the right amount of softness for me, including around the edges, to cut the sharpness of digital sensors. At T2.8 it's a hair less sharp than my Sony GM primes and Fujinon Cabrio but very acceptable - again, especially given how sharp Sony sensors are. The very slight softness and warmth put the
lenses in between a vintage feel and modern feel, which I like. The flares are dramatic on these lenses, especially the 25mm, and that leans more toward a vintage feel.

[T1.4] As with my review of their APO Microprime 85mm T2.1, These lenses are incredible for their price and quality. The image is crisp, but not overly sharp, bokeh is beautiful, I love how blues and reds are rendered, good contrast... right kind of character, weight and build I needed with my Komodo. I highly recommend paring these with the Canon x 0.71 focal reducer. I hope Slr Magic continues this line with other focal lengths.

[1.905 lb] An easy, affordable step up in the look of my images. Received great assistance from B&H through Chat to think through options, ideas, and trade-offs.

[T1.4] This is a beautiful lens. The color is true. It loves skin. Wide-open it blooms, contrast drops, and it looks like you have a Promist filter on. Don't expect anywhere near sharp focus wide open. However, things sharpen up f/2.5-2.8. I bought and 32mm and 50mm, but the 32mm was soft through 3.5 - sent it back. I have yet to receive a replacement. Hopefully, it was a QC problem with that lens. Regarding the 50mm, the box had a crushed corner. So, I sent it back for an exchange.

[T1.4] With an a background using photo lenses, this piece of glass is heavy, at 2 lbs, great for smoothing out those micro-jitters on my Pocket 6K and 4K. I used this on a talking head video a like the results. I look forward to using this lens more to experience the characteristics people crave about. Overall, I'm happy with this purchase so much I'm considering purchasing the 85mm.
