The Thypoch Simera-C 16mm T1.9 Cine Lens is a professional full-frame ultra-wide cine lens engineered for filmmakers who demand cinematic depth, precision optics, and lightweight versatility in modern production environments. Designed specifically for Sony E-mount cinema and mirrorless systems, the Simera-C 16mm T1.9 combines immersive visual storytelling with compact portability, making it an ideal choice for narrative filmmaking, architecture, documentary work, action cinematography, and atmospheric landscape capture.

Delivering an expansive 106° field of view, the lens creates dramatic spatial depth and visual tension that extends beyond natural human perspective. Its fast constant T1.9 aperture excels in low-light shooting conditions while producing cinematic subject separation and smooth depth rendering. Whether capturing sweeping architectural scenes, celestial imagery, dynamic action sequences, or intimate close-focus compositions, the Simera-C 16mm offers a distinctive cinematic look with exceptional clarity and realism.

The lens features an advanced optical design consisting of 15 elements arranged in 11 groups, delivering outstanding center sharpness and high-resolution performance compatible with modern cinema systems including the Sony Venice II 6K, ARRI Alexa LF, and RED V-Raptor 8K. Chromatic aberration is highly controlled to near-APO standards, while distortion remains extremely minimal to preserve accurate geometry and clean image rendering even at the maximum T1.9 aperture.

Purpose-built for cinema production, the Simera-C 16mm exhibits virtually zero focus breathing, allowing seamless focus pulls without noticeable image shifts. Advanced flare and ghosting suppression ensure dependable performance in difficult lighting environments such as vehicle rigs, practical light scenes, and outdoor productions. A remarkably short minimum focusing distance of just 0.16 meters enables dramatic close-up perspectives with enhanced environmental depth and immersive storytelling possibilities.

Despite its professional optical capabilities, the lens maintains a compact and lightweight design, measuring approximately 7 cm in length and weighing only 490 g in the Sony E-mount version. This agile form factor makes it exceptionally well-suited for gimbals, drones, handheld rigs, and modular systems such as the DJI Ronin 4D FLEX, providing filmmakers with greater mobility and creative freedom without sacrificing image quality.
