Sirui just released their new Night Walker S35 T1.2 Cine lenses for E/X/RF/MFT mount with 24mm, 35mm, and 55mm lengths and they're actually amazing! In this video I share some test footage I shot with these lenses and share my thoughts about why I think Sirui is changing the game with these amazing cine lenses.
