Cinematic 35mm T1.9 Prime for Sony E

The Nisi ATHENA PRIME 35mm T1.9 is a professional cinema lens built for Sony E-mount cameras. It serves filmmakers and photographers who require exceptional optical performance for narrative, commercial or documentary work. The lens delivers ultra-low chromatic aberration and superior micro-contrast for critical detail capture.

T1.9 aperture with minimal focus breathing

The fast T1.9 maximum aperture provides shallow depth of field and strong low-light capability essential for cinematic storytelling. Minimal focus breathing maintains a consistent field of view during focus pulls from close distance to infinity. This stability preserves visual integrity when executing precise rack-focus shots.

300-degree focus rotation for precision control

A 300-degree manual focus rotation angle allows smooth, accurate adjustments critical for professional focus pulling. The lens ships without a filter holder, so users must source their own matte box or filter solution. Matched design across the Athena Prime range ensures consistent handling when swapping focal lengths.

Questions about this item

What does the T1.9 aperture actually give me when shooting video?

The T1.9 aperture transmits more light than a typical f/1.9 photo lens, letting you shoot cleaner footage in low light while producing a shallow depth of field and soft background bokeh for a cinematic look.

How does the Sony E mount affect what I can put in front of this lens?

The native Sony E mount means no adapter is needed on E-mount cinema or mirrorless bodies, but the lens has no built-in filter holder so you must use a matte box or screw-in filters sized to the front diameter.

How much space does the 300-degree focus throw need on my follow focus rig?

The 300-degree manual focus rotation requires a follow focus with a large gear or a long throw arm to use the full range smoothly, especially when pulling focus between close and infinity marks.
