What sets the Rokinon Cine DS 16mm T2.2 Wide Angle Lens apart is its meticulous design, tailored specifically for APS-C cameras to deliver the widest angle photos and videos possible. This lens, when used with an APS-C camera, offers a broader field of view compared to the results from the same camera equipped with a full-frame lens like the Rokinon 14mm f/2.8.

This feature eliminates the need for follow focus readjustments, making it an efficient choice for professional photographers and videographers. Moreover, the Rokinon Cine DS 16mm T2.2 lens is equipped with dual focusing scales, conveniently located on each side. This lens is also color-matched with all other Rokinon Cine DS lenses, ensuring visual consistency across your equipment. In essence, this lens is a perfect blend of wide-angle performance and seamless compatibility, making it an ideal addition to your Sony E camera setup.

The 70-180mm F/2.8 Di III VC VXD G2 (Model A065) is the “G2” 2nd-generation successor to the 70-180mm F/2.8 Di III VXD (Model A056), a lens that won astounding acclaim from the marketplace and has been enjoyed by users around the world. The new model has been updated with TAMRON’s proprietary VC (Vibration Compensation) and the optical design has been completely reworked from the ground up to attain uncompromising optical performance throughout the entire zoom range. In addition, the VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) AF system faithfully fulfils the intentions of the photographer to a high degree of precision in steps of 0.005mm, less than one-tenth the width of a human hair to further enhance the tracking performance of moving objects such as vehicles and sports action, ensuring you never miss decisive scenes whether shooting still images or video. Also, the quietness offered by the linear motor system provides nearly silent performance when using the lens in conditions where noise needs to be minimized.

The Tamron 28-200mm F/2.8-5.6 (Model AFA071S-700) is the world’s first all-in-one zoom to achieve a maximum aperture of F2.8 at the 28mm wide-angle end. Despite covering a wide range of focal lengths, the lens is lightweight and compact, making it convenient to bring along for all your picture taking needs. When combined with a compact, lightweight full-frame/APS-C mirrorless camera, it allows photographers to capture virtually every scene they encounter in daily use, travel, sports and nature. Tamron did not compromise on optical performance. The use of special lens elements—including LD (Low Dispersion) and XLD (eXtra Low Dispersion)- help suppress chromatic aberrations, making it possible to achieve high image quality from edge to edge. With a MOD (Minimum Object Distance) of 0.19m (7.5 in) at the wide end and 0.8m (31.5 in) at the telephoto end, the lens also offers high-level close-up shooting performance. The AF drive system is powered by the RXD (Rapid eXtra-silent stepping Drive) stepping motor unit to deliver high-speed, high-precision performance. The lens also features Moisture-Resistant Construction and Fluorine Coating for added protection.
