Great lens for the price.
Great lens. Too bad it was not the focal length I needed for my project. Had to return it with some sorrow. I didn't get to use it much but I was impressed with the build quality. It came with a nice suede type drawstring sack. Had all of the caps on there and the hood. For the price a better carry case/ would be appropriate. A soft sided bag although it was a decent one, is not what you want a high quality lens to be sitting in. You want it inside a nice strong foam filled zip up case or something. Otherwise I wish I had a use for this. Eventually I would buy the whole set based on the quality of this unit.These used to be considered a poor man's excuse for a cinema lens. But now I see them becoming accepted as a decent tool among professionals who want to shoot on cinema primes. After handling it I realized it really is made and sized JUST like a Canon L series lens. That's basicly what it is, an modified L-Series prime without the stabilization. But the declicked aperture and fixed gear rings are so nice. I think pulling focus on this is pretty good. It had enough distance and movement from end to end to make it a useable lens for any good 1st AC in my opinion. I tried to marry it to a BMPCC and it just didn't make the look that I needed. Otherwise it would have been a keeper.

Great Value for the Money. Just some issues prevent it from getting 5 stars for me.
Are there better Cine lenses out there? Yes. Are they significantly more expensive? Totally.It goes past infinity when focusing, a bit soft at T1.5 (T2 - 2.8 gets a lot sharper), and I'm not fan of the focus breathing but honestly it's great for the price. Feels sturdy, works well, and is some really nice glass. I primarily use it on my GH5 and while the lens doesn't have O.I.S. it still works really well for handheld shooting. For those using a GH5s or something without I.B.I.S. a tripod or steady cam would be your best bet.At a 48mm equivalent on a full frame camera makes it incredibly close to the 50mm look I consider a sweet spot. All in all, if it wasn't for the lens breathing I would say this lens is near perfect for the price.

Beautiful film look
I love these lenses so much. For the price, they offer such a nice looking image that’s both sharp and crisp but soft and smooth on skin tones. With good lighting and a good sensor, these lenses will give you similar results to prime lenses 3x the price. The shallow depth of field is also fun to play with on a wide angle 24mm.I have a Nikon Z6 and am using the FTZ adaptor with this lens. The full frame look is really what sold me on this lens.

Rokinon Cine 24mm T1.5 MFT Lens
Bought this along with the 8mm, 12mm, 35mm, and 85mm sisters for my GH4. This one is a little soft with a little CA wide open compared to the other four, hence the four stars. At T2 and above it seems much sharper. Otherwise I'm very happy with this lens.Also, these lenses seem to exhibit some softness at T22, which I assume is a diffraction effect, and with which I am not too surprised given the cost. It's not too likely I'll be using it much at that aperture anyway since I have a range of ND filters that will cover most conditions.I'm looking at filling out the set with the 50mm when I'm able.
