Rokinon Grows Xeen CF Line
Two new wide-angle Xeen CF lenses, 16mm (T2.6) and 35mm (T1.5), are now available.
Rokinon has added two wide-angle lenses to its Xeen CF Professional Cine Lens line for PL, Canon EF and Sony E mount: the 16mm (T2.6) and the 35mm (T1.5).
With these new additions, the Xeen CF lineup has grown to a set of five primes: 16mm (T2.6), 24mm (T1.5), 35mm (T1.5), 50mm (T1.5) and 85mm (T1.5).
The 16mm weighs 2 pounds and measures 3.24" in length.

Like Rokinon’s other CF lenses, the new models are compatible with gimbals, drones and compact cameras. This was accomplished by utilizing carbon-fiber construction rather than metal for a sturdier, lighter, more durable product.
The lenses are compatible with large image sensors (43.3mm image circle) and feature luminous markings, standard 95mm front diameters, Xeen X-coating to control internal reflection, and uniform focus- and aperture-ring locations to facilitate quick lens changes when using follow-focus devices.
All Rokinon Xeen CF lenses are covered by a three-year warranty.
“The new Xeen CF lenses show faces in a most beautiful way, with smooth and subtle transitions,” says Bill Bennett, ASC.
