SIRUI Night Walker T1.2 Super35 Format Kino-Objektiv Serie - Black / 16mm / MFT

The T1.2 aperture allows the lens to capture significantly more light, enabling shooting in very dark conditions without resorting to high ISO settings, which helps maintain clean images with less noise. It also provides a very shallow depth of field for creative background blur (bokeh).

This lens is designed for Super35 format sensors. While it might mount on a full-frame camera, it will produce a cropped image. For full-frame coverage, you would need to use a different lens or accept the Super35 crop.

The series shares similar physical dimensions, weight distribution, and gear positions for focus and aperture. This means that when switching between different focal lengths in the Night Walker series, your camera rig, follow focus, and matte box settings require minimal to no adjustment, saving time during production.

A T-stop (Transmission stop) measures the actual amount of light transmitted through the lens, accounting for light loss within the lens elements. An F-stop is a theoretical ratio. For cinema lenses, T-stops are preferred for accurate exposure consistency between different lenses.

Yes, the lens features a unified 67mm filter thread, allowing you to attach standard filters for various photographic and videographic needs.

The SIRUI Night Walker T1.2 Super35 Format Kino-Objektiv Series typically includes focal lengths such as 16mm, 24mm, 35mm, 55mm, and 75mm, all sharing the T1.2 aperture and consistent design.

The lenses are constructed with a robust aluminum alloy body, designed to withstand the demands of professional filmmaking and provide long-term reliability.

Ensure the lens is securely mounted to the camera. Practice manual focusing; the 270° throw requires deliberate movement. Check if the focus ring is set to the correct distance for your scene.

Confirm the lens is set to its sharpest aperture (typically 1-2 stops down from T1.2, e.g., T2 or T2.8). Ensure focus is accurately set for the subject distance. Clean the lens elements if smudges are present.

Ensure the camera is powered off before changing lenses. Practice the mounting and dismounting procedure. Verify that any lens support system is not obstructing the lens release mechanism.

Double-check that the lens is fully seated and locked into the camera mount. If the issue persists, inspect the camera mount and lens mount for any visible damage. Contact support if damage is suspected.
