Tokina Cinema announces the new 180mm T1.9 Vista Prime lens.

This unique optic has been developed to join the 18mm, 21mm, 25mm, 25mm, 29mm, 35mm, 40mm, 50mm, 65mm, 85mm, 105mm and 135mm T1.5 Vista Prime lenses to form one of the most complete lens sets designed from the ground up for cinema.

The 180mm T1.9 shares the characteristics of the other Vista lens family, creating organic and highly detailed images.

Lens distortion and chromatic aberration are virtually undetectable.

There is virtually no focus breathing and the lens exhibits a smooth shift from subject to background.

The incredibly fast aperture of the 180mm T1.9 Vista Prime offers photographers new creative possibilities. It maintains the performance of the other Vista Prime lenses but with the ability to isolate subjects at a distance, presenting them with an almost three-dimensional appearance.

In addition, a minimum focusing distance of 1.5m, with a maximum magnification ratio of 1:7.91, allows for beautiful close-ups of talent.

Images are fully resolved at 8K+ resolution and cover both Vistavision and Super35 formats.

The 180mm T1.9 perfectly complements modern large sensor cameras such as the RED V-Raptor, ARRI Alexa Mini LF, Canon C500 mkII, Sony Venice 2 and FX9.

Although the lens is T1.9 its front end still maintains a 114mm outer diameter in common with the other Vista Primes. This allows for easy attachment of a mattebox and filters. The lens is also threaded to accept 112mm filters.
