Viltrox 56mm T1.5 Cine Lens – Fast Cine Lens for Micro Four Thirds Cameras
The Viltrox 56mm T1.5 Cine Lens is a fast Micro Four Thirds cine lens designed for filmmakers and video creators who need strong low-light performance, controlled manual operation and a more cinematic image style. With its T1.5 aperture, 14-blade diaphragm, cine-style gearing and compact build, it is well suited for video production, content creation and compact filmmaking setups.
The 56mm focal length provides a tighter, portrait-style field of view on Micro Four Thirds cameras, making it useful for interviews, close-ups, detail shots and compositions where subject separation is important.

T1.5 Aperture for Low Light and Cinematic Depth of Field
The T1.5 aperture helps when shooting in low-light environments such as interiors, evening scenes or atmospheric visual sequences. The high light transmission can support lower ISO settings while creating stronger background separation.
This is especially useful for:
- interview recordings
- portrait-style video scenes
- indoor filmmaking
- atmospheric B-roll footage
- low-light video work
- compositions with soft background blur
14-Blade Diaphragm for Smooth Bokeh
The 14-blade diaphragm helps create smoother and more natural-looking background blur. This is important in video and cinema work, where the character of the background can strongly influence the mood of the image.
The bokeh rendering is useful when the goal is to highlight the subject with a softer, more cinematic visual style.
Cine Design for Precise Control
The Viltrox 56mm T1.5 Cine Lens features 0.8 MOD cine gearing, making it suitable for use with follow focus systems commonly used in filmmaking workflows. This allows for more precise and repeatable focus and aperture control.
The cine design is useful for:
- more precise manual focus control
- follow focus compatibility
- controlled aperture adjustment
- more stable filmmaking workflow
- comfortable use with rigs or matte boxes
Consistent Dimensions for Cine Lens Sets
Like the other lenses in the cine series, this lens features a 70mm front outside diameter and a 62mm filter thread. This makes lens changes faster, as fewer adjustments are needed when working with matte boxes, filters or adapter rings.
This is useful for:
- multi-lens cine sets
- fast-paced production environments
- rigged camera systems
- ND filter-based video workflows
- building a consistent filmmaking setup
