Irix Cine 15mm T2.6 for Nikon Z (Metric) IL C15 Z M

,
This 110 degree Field Of View wide angle 15mm T2.6 cine version is made for Canon EF, Sony E mount, MFT, Canon RF, Nikon Z, L Mount and PL Mount and covers a Large Format sensor. That means that it easily covers the sensor of an EOS R5, but also a RED Monstro or a Sony Venice.
Of course you can also use it on an MFT or Super 35 sensor with an x2 or x1.6 crop.


The housing of this lens is of course specially made for video, with an all weather seal with a fixed rear lens element, to prevent the lens from being susceptible to dust at the back. The minimum focus distance is 28cm, measured from the sensor.


Of course, all markings are on the side, because as a film maker you often work in a team, and as an Operator or 1stAC you work next to the camera and not as with a camera, where you read the values and settings from above.


The diaphragm ring has a stroke of 75 degrees and consists of 9 diaphragm blades. The focus ring has a 180 degree throw and is fitted with industry standard .8 pitch gears for a follow focus. Next to the focus ring is just like the other Irix Cine lenses, the Adaptive ring, which you can rotate to give your follow focus more space this works especially well with electronic follow focus systems.


The lens has a standard 95mm mount for a Mattebox, and has an 86mm thread for filters on the front this is handy for when you want to keep your setup small and dont want to work with a Mattebox with relatively more expensive filters, but round screw want to use in filters. This ensures that you can keep your setup small if you want.


The light intensity of T2.6 stands for Transmission; the actual amount of light hitting the sensor. An F stop refers to the opening of your diaphragm.
