IRIX’s 6th lens in their cinema line, the 21mm T1.5 is a very welcome addition. 21mm’s have a reputation as being expensive (Contax 21mm anyone?), so this may fill a void in the market for a fast, affordable 21mm cine lens.

- Compatible with other Irix lenses
- Almost no distortion
- 7 mounts, including mirrorless
