## Long description

The Samyang VDSLR 85mm T1.5 MK2 MILC Black is a cinema-grade 85mm prime lens designed for mirrorless interchangeable-lens cameras and DSLR systems using a Canon EF mount. With a fast T1.5 aperture, a 9/7 optical construction and a compact metal housing finished in matte black, this lens is built to deliver cinematic image quality on full-frame sensors while remaining suitable for handheld and gimbal-mounted setups. The model offers a 72mm filter thread, a 1.1 m minimum focusing distance and weather sealing at the mount to help protect against dust and light moisture.
Advantages
This lens provides a fast T1.5 aperture for low-light shooting and selective depth of field. The 9-blade iris produces smooth, circular bokeh and enables pronounced starburst highlights when stopped down. The 9/7 element-group optical layout is optimized to reduce spherical and optical aberrations, giving clear rendering and consistent contrast across the frame. A long focus throw and de-clicked aperture gear rings support precise manual focus and exposure control for video production. Compact dimensions and a relatively light weight make the lens practical for handheld, gimbal and shoulder-mounted rigs.
Suitable for
Professional and indie filmmaking where portrait-style compression and subject separation are required
Low-light shooting and narrative scenes requiring shallow depth of field
Gimbal and handheld camera setups that need compact, balanced glass
Manual focus workflows and focus pulling on set

How to use
Mount the lens securely to a compatible Canon EF camera body and confirm the weather-seal interface is aligned. For cinematic results, set the aperture to T1.5 to achieve shallow depth of field and isolate your subject; stop down for greater depth and to create starburst effects from point highlights. Use the long focus throw for accurate manual focusing or pair the lens with a follow focus unit using the geared focus ring. Attach a 72 mm filter if required for ND or protective glass. When shooting handheld or on gimbals, balance the camera rig before recording to reduce strain on motors and to maintain smooth movement.
Usage recommendations
To maximize image quality, calibrate focus marks for your camera system and check for back/front focus during test shots. Use T1.5 for subject separation and low-light scenes, and stop down to T4–T8 when increased depth of field or sharper corner-to-corner performance is needed. Clean the mount seal and lens contacts regularly and store the lens in a dry environment to preserve the weather-sealing function.
