SLR Magic 35mm T/1.4 Cine Mark II Lens Verdict

Although this lens is sold as a special effects lens due to the softness towards the edges of the frame seen at fast apertures, it is a competent performer, delivering excellent sharpness in the centre of the frame from maximum aperture. Although this lens is geared toward those shooting video with their camera, it is equally at home for still photography, and is priced reasonably when compared to the competition.
