This 65mm lens is etched with focus marks in feet and shares the same form factor, lens gear position, and front barrel diameter as the other Cinema Vista prime lenses, enabling quick on-set lens changes. The 9-bladed, curved iris provides round, out-of-focus highlights for a natural-looking bokeh.
