The manual focus Rokinon 8mm T3.1 Cine UMC Fish-Eye II lens is available for mirrorless Canon EF-M, Fujfilm X, Samsung NX, and Sony E mounts. As a lens designed for shooting HD video, it offers features that differentiate it from photo lenses, which, of course, can also serve to shoot HDSLR video. However, a Cine-dedicated lens, like the Rokinon 8mm T3.1, has a clickless aperture ring, which is not only silent but enables smooth transitions between stops and the ability to shoot between those stops. Furthermore, it relates aperture in T-stops, which stands for Transmission-stops and denotes a more accurate measurement of the light entering through the lens, and provides a more consistent measurement from lens to lens. Additionally, a Cine lens features geared aperture and focus rings to enable the use of focus pull apparatus such as a follow focus system.
