Overview

The Rokinon Xeen 2-Lens Kit brings together two of the most essential cinema focal lengths — 35mm and 85mm — in matched T1.5 cine lenses built for the PL mount. The Xeen line is designed from the ground up for motion picture work, and these lenses reflect that purpose in every detail. Both feature an internal focus design that keeps the lens barrel length constant during focusing and dramatically reduces focus breathing, ensuring that the field of view stays stable during focus pulls. The multi-coated optical elements deliver strong contrast and effective glare suppression, while the matched coatings across both lenses provide consistent color rendition — critical when cutting between shots from different focal lengths in post-production.

On the mechanical side, each lens features an 11-blade iris that produces smooth, rounded bokeh with natural-looking highlights, and the 200-degree focus ring rotation gives focus pullers the precision needed for repeatable marks on narrative sets. Dual-sided focus scales marked in feet and dual-sided iris scales make the lenses readable from either side of the camera, accommodating different operator and assistant positions. The shared 114mm front diameter across both lenses is a significant practical advantage: matte boxes, filters, and follow focus gears stay in place when swapping lenses, reducing setup time on fast-moving productions. For filmmakers building a PL-mount lens set, this bundle provides a strong foundation with two versatile focal lengths that cover everything from environmental wide shots to intimate close-ups.

Pros & Cons

👍 Pros

  • Matched T1.5 aperture across both lenses enables consistent exposure when switching focal lengths
  • Internal focus design minimizes breathing for smooth, professional focus pulls
  • 11-blade iris produces natural, rounded bokeh in out-of-focus areas
  • Common 114mm front diameter eliminates the need to re-rig matte boxes and accessories between lens changes
  • 200-degree focus rotation provides precise, repeatable focus control for cinema work

👎 Cons

  • PL mount limits compatibility to cinema cameras and adapted mirrorless systems without native PL support
  • Two-lens kit covers only 35mm and 85mm, leaving gaps at wider and longer focal lengths
  • Cine lenses of this caliber are significantly heavier and larger than comparable photo lenses
  • High price point puts the bundle beyond reach for many independent or hobbyist filmmakers

Frequently Asked Questions

The bundle includes a Rokinon Xeen 35mm T1.5 and a Rokinon Xeen 85mm T1.5, both in PL mount. Together they cover a versatile range from wide-angle to short telephoto.
Both lenses share a 114mm front diameter, which means you can swap between them without readjusting your matte box, follow focus, or other front-mounted accessories — saving significant time on set.
Each lens features a 200-degree focus ring rotation, allowing very precise and repeatable focus pulls — a critical feature for cinema applications where focus accuracy directly affects the final image.
The Xeen lenses use an internal focus design that minimizes focus breathing, so the field of view remains consistent as you rack focus — important for maintaining a professional look in narrative and commercial work.
These are PL (Positive Lock) mount lenses, the industry standard for cinema cameras. PL lenses can be adapted to certain other mounts (such as Canon EF or Sony E) with appropriate adapters, though this varies by camera system.
