Samyang/Rokinon Add 14mm & 35mm to the Affordable Xeen PL Lineup1 min read
Reading Time: < 1 minuteBack in August, Samyang, introduced a new line of relatively affordable full-frame 35mm PL mount lenses called Xeen.
These lenses (which also come in EF, F, Sony E-Mount, and MFT), based somewhat on the original set of cine primes, were completely overhauled with new coatings, more precision, longer focus throw, and better build quality. The first lenses released were the 24mm T1.5, 50mm T1.5, and 85mm T1.5. Now they’ve added two more lenses, the 14mm T3.1 and the 35mm T1.5, giving you a much more complete set. While these new lenses are listed at around $2,500 each with a March release date, the current Xeen lenses are coming in at just $2,150. This seems to indicate that at some point in the future we may see this full 5-lens set at somewhere between US$10,000 and US$11,000 (special deals are going on at a place like Duclos with all 5 lenses for US$10K).
