Our editorial take on the Samyang Cine 35mm T1.5 AS UMC II (DS) Lens Manual for Canon EF-Mount

The Samyang Cine 35mm T1.5 AS UMC II (DS) is a budget-friendly manual cinema lens designed for Canon EF-mount cameras. At $229, it delivers a fast T1.5 aperture and declicked, geared focus and aperture rings suited for video work. The DS (Dual System) variant offers additional gearing for follow-focus systems, making it a practical option for solo shooters and small production teams working with gimbal rigs or shoulder mounts.

This lens fits squarely in the entry-level cinema glass category, competing with other Samyang cine primes and legacy manual lenses adapted for video. The 35mm focal length is versatile for interviews, documentary work, and narrative scenes. Build quality is typically solid for the price point, with a metal barrel and standard 77mm filter threads. Manual focus and aperture control are expected in this class, so autofocus shooters should look elsewhere.

Best for: Budget-conscious videographers and indie filmmakers shooting on Canon EF-mount cameras who need affordable cinema glass with manual control.
What's great
  • Fast T1.5 aperture for low light and shallow depth of field
  • Declicked aperture ring for smooth video exposure changes
  • Geared focus and aperture rings compatible with follow-focus systems
  • Affordable cinema lens option for Canon EF shooters
Watch outs
  • Manual focus and aperture only, no autofocus
  • Heavier and bulkier than comparable photo primes
