The new SIRUI VP-1 vision prime lenses offer a compact design with a maximum aperture of T1.4 for full-frame mirrorless cameras. Providing focal lengths of 24mm, 35mm, and 50mm (with 15mm and 75mm coming soon), the lenses feature a user-interchangeable lens mount between Sony E, Canon RF, Nikon Z, and Leica L. The VP-1 lenses will soon be available via Kickstarter for $549 each. The Chinese camera accessories manufacturer SIRUI entered the world of lens manufacturing relatively recently, about six years ago, starting with the affordable 50mm f/1.8 APS-C anamorphic lens, but has since managed to build quite a wide portfolio. To demonstrate the level of innovation at SIRUI last year, the company announced a 40mm 1.33x anamorphic lens with autofocus. Make sure to check Johnnie’s review in case you missed it. In fact, SIRUI announced the lens shortly after the world’s first anamorphic AF lens from BLAZAR was introduced at the IBC show. Today, we get teased with yet another new lens series from SIRUI. This time, we are talking fast full-frame spherical cinema primes. Let’s take a short look at the upcoming SIRUI VP-1 lineup. Vision Prime 1 cine lenses.
