👎 Cons

  • The Rokinon 16mm T2.2 Cine DS Lens is specifically designed for Nikon Mount, limiting its direct compatibility with other camera systems.
  • The lens is a prime lens, meaning it has a fixed focal length of 16mm and does not offer zoom capabilities.
  • While suited for cine work, its manual focus nature might be a challenge for quick, run-and-gun photography situations.
  • The T2.2 aperture, while wide, is not as fast as some prime lenses available, which could impact extreme low-light performance.
  • The included microphone, while versatile, is a separate component and adds to the overall setup and complexity.
