Canon CN-E 50mm t/1.3 Prime Lens (FF, EF)

The Canon CN-E 50mm T1.3 L F Cine Lens is an EF-mount standard-width lens for Canon’s C-series cinema cameras, full-frame EOS DSLRs, and any video-capable camera that accepts EF-mount lenses. The aperture is a fast T1.3 that lets you get superior shots in low light. The diaphragm is made up of 11-blades and is as round as can be, and along with the fast aperture it can produce impressive bokeh and beautiful circular highlights. The diaphragm ring is stepless, super-smooth, and fully manual, even when used with a DSLR, offering an evermore accurate handle.

The CN-E 50 was released with two complementary relatives, the CN-E 24mm and CN-E 85mm. All three lenses share the same front diameter, form factor, optical design, placement of gear rings, and mechanical construction. Because of the identical characteristics, one lens can be swapped with another easily, even when geared accessories are involved.
