Thypoch Simera-C 28mm T1.5 FF Prime Cine Lens (M- mount)

The Thypoch Simera-C series is designed as compact full-frame cine lenses, weighing approximately only 400 grams. They are ideal for shooting in a car, handheld, or on a gimbal.

Simera-C lenses make it easy to shoot challenging angles or work in extremely confined spaces, such as low shots, over-the-shoulder shots, or tight spaces inside a car. This set not only expands the possibilities of cinematic expression, but also significantly increases agility, maneuverability, and creative potential when shooting.

Consistent T/1.5 aperture and 16 aperture blades for round bokeh

To achieve an even more circular bokeh, these lenses use 16 aperture blades instead of the 14 blades found in the Simera photographic version. The blur transitions and bokeh character provide better subject separation and a more pronounced three-dimensional impression.

Cine-standard design, wide compatibility

The Leica M mount offers versatility comparable to the PL mount: using standard M-mount adapters, Simera-C lenses can be used with various mirrorless cameras (E, RF, Z, L, X mounts) across systems. With the lockable M-ARRI adapter, they are also compatible with ARRI ALEXA Mini LF, ALEXA Mini, AMIRA, and other ARRI systems. This exceptional compatibility allows for easy work with both entry-level mirrorless cameras and high-end film setups such as DJI Ronin 4D, Sony Venice, ARRI, and more.

Neutral and clean image with minimal chromatic aberration and high resolution

Simera-C lenses use aspherical elements, ED glass, and high refractive index elements and share the same optical design as Simera photographic lenses. As a result, they provide extremely high resolution and excellent chromatic aberration correction, making them ideal for 8K video production. Multiple high-refractive-index coatings also minimize flare and ghosting. Even in strong backlighting, Simera-C lenses deliver high contrast and an overall clean image.

The focus scales are marked in both imperial and metric units. All lenses have identical positions for the focus and aperture rings.

Key features:

• Neutral image with a vintage, organic texture.
• High light transmission for expressive depth of field and spatial separation.
• Smooth, round bokeh with controlled reflections.
• Excellent performance even in low-light environments.
• Rich details, finely rendered shadows, pleasing visual aesthetics, and subtle, balanced contrast.
• Each lens in this series uses aspherical elements, ED glass, and high refractive index elements to achieve high sharpness while maintaining compact dimensions.
