Canon CN-E 24mm T1.5 L F Cinema Prime – professional wide-angle cine lens | Fotoplus
The Canon CN-E 24mm T1.5 L F Cinema Prime is a wide-angle, manual-focus cinema prime lens designed to cover both Full Frame and Super 35 sensors. Built for Cinema EOS cameras and professional film productions, it delivers precise mechanical control, consistent optical performance, and seamless integration into modern cine workflows.
Its fast T1.5 maximum aperture makes it ideal for low-light shooting and for achieving an extremely shallow depth of field with a cinematic look. The 11-blade iris produces smooth, rounded out-of-focus highlights and pleasing, natural bokeh.
Precision focus control for cinematic production
A defining feature of the CN-E 24mm T1.5 is its 300° smooth, continuous focus rotation, enabling highly accurate and repeatable focus pulls from close focus to infinity—essential for professional filmmaking.
- Minimized focus breathing for consistent framing during focus pulls
- Standard 8 MOD cine gears for focus and aperture control
- Smooth, uniform mechanical resistance for reliable operation
Reliable optical and mechanical design
The advanced optical construction helps compensate for thermal expansion and contraction, preventing focus marking shifts caused by temperature changes—critical for long shooting days and demanding environments.
Dual-sided focus scales, with angled rear markings, ensure excellent readability for both camera operators and focus pullers from either side of the camera.
- Dust- and drip-resistant construction for everyday production use
- Consistent size and ergonomics across the Canon CN-E cinema lens lineup
- Fast lens changes and uninterrupted cine workflows
The Canon CN-E 24mm T1.5 L F Cinema Prime Lens is a wide-angle, manual focus prime lens that covers Full Frame and Super 35 sensor formats.
The lens offers a maximum aperture of T1.5, useful when shooting in low light situations or when you want to capture that exceedingly shallow depth of field look. It has an 11-blade iris that provides round out of focus highlights for a natural looking bokeh. The lens barrel features 300° of stepless, smooth rotation from close focus to infinity, giving you a high degree of precision and consistent focus.
The lens is designed to minimize focus breathing and also has innovative glass construction that counteracts barrel expansion and contraction to avoid temperature-induced marking discrepancies. It's dual focus with markings on both sides of the barrel, with the rear markings on an angled surface, making it readable form either side of the camera. It also has a dust and water resistant housing to minimize maintenance during normal use.
