Utilizing a multi-layer coating process for consistent color rendition from lens to lens, the Rokinon 100mm T3.1 Macro Cine Lens for Sony E-Mountanswers the challenge of assembling a set of lenses over time. The lens comes in Sony E-Mount, and it features industry standard geared focus and iris rings that share common position with other Rokinon Cine DS lenses. To aid focus pullers who have to work both sides of the lens, the aperture and focus scales are marked on both sides of the lens.

This 100mm lens produces a 24.8° angle-of-view when used with a full-frame sensor camera or a 35mm SLR. It can be used for macro videography, which means you can record an image that is the same size or bigger on the sensor as it is in real life. The 15 glass elements in 12 groups render sharply defined images with a minimum of distortion and chromatic aberrations, with a minimum focus distance of 1' from the lens. A removable lens hood provides flare protection when shooting without a matte box, and the lens's threaded front accepts 67mm filter rings.

Q: 4. Does the Rokinon 100mm T3.1 Macro lens work for the Sony Alpha a7 II?

A: Thei Rokinon works with the Sony a7 II only with an adapter. Since this lens is all manual, you only need a straight adapter with no electronics. Bower ABNEXSON Sony NEX Camera to Sony Alpha Lens Adapter B&H # BOCASSMAX. If you get a Sony A mount lens with auto focus, you will need this one. Sony A-Mount to E-Mount Lens Adapter with Translucent Mirror Technology (Black) B&H # SOLAEA4. However, we strongly suggest you getting this one. Rokinon 100mm f/2.8 Macro Lens for Sony E B&H # RO10028SE. Yes, it is more expensive but it is less than the other lens with the adapter.

Q: 7. How does this lens work on lowlight?

A: Generally the highest f/number allowed to be considered a fast low light aperture is f/2.8. The Rokinon 100mm T3.1 Macro Cine DS Lens with a f/3.1 lens is just 1/3 a stop over that so it is close to being a low light lens. You can also know that many times f/4 has been used in low light videography and fine images are the result. However, if you must have the fastest 100mm possible, why not consider this Canon EF 100mm f/2 USM Lens B&H # CA1002EF or Yongnuo YN 100mm f/2 Lens for Canon EF B&H # YOYN100MMF2? They are f/2 which is a stop and a third faster if not cine lenses. I can tell you when shooting low light, every photon counts.
