Sirui MS16L-B 16mm T1.2 Cine Lens - L Mount - Night Walker Series

The Sirui Night Walker 16mm T1.2 is a wide-angle cine lens built for filmmakers and content creators who need to shoot in challenging lighting conditions without sacrificing image quality. Its fast T1.2 maximum aperture gathers significantly more light than typical T2.0 or T2.8 cine lenses, making it a strong choice for indoor scenes, nighttime exteriors, and any situation where adding artificial lighting is impractical. The 14-element, 5-group optical design is engineered to minimize aberrations while delivering sharp, characterful imagery. On an APS-C or Super 35 sensor with L Mount, the 16mm focal length yields roughly a 24mm equivalent field of view — wide enough for establishing shots, interiors, and environmental storytelling.

Designed with video production in mind, the lens features a 270-degree focus ring throw for smooth, precise focus transitions, and its 13-blade aperture produces creamy, circular bokeh that adds a cinematic quality to out-of-focus areas. The minimum focus distance of 0.3 meters allows for creative close-up work with pronounced background separation. A standard 67mm front filter thread accommodates ND filters and other accessories without requiring specialized adapters. The overall form factor remains compact for a T1.2 lens, keeping the rig balanced on gimbals and handheld setups.
