THE WORLD'S FIRST CINE AF
WHAT IS V-AF
Introducing the world's first cine auto-focus lens line-up, V-AF.
V-AF was created for all video creators, ranging from single-person video creators to small productions as well as filmmakers. With the development of interchangeable lens cameras and the prevalence of video accessories, anyone can easily produce video content. Samyang Optics will apply elements optimized for imaging to autofocus lenses to satisfy creators' desire to create high-quality video content more easily.
V-AF has increased compatibility from the gimbal to the drone by applying the consistent form factor from ultra-wide angles to semi-telephoto angles. The tiny size of ∅72.2 x 72.1 mm and light weight of 280g reduced the burden of drone payloads. As the V-AF series provide a unified center of gravity and size, there is no need for extra setting which greatly reduces time when it comes to using a gimbal.
There is a Tally Lamp that displays the filming status with LED light so even a single creator can quickly check the recording status. The focus ring has been redesigned to allow follow focus to be applied without additional accessories. There is also a custom switch and a focus button to set the optimized function for filming.
With V-AF customized accessories for professional video shooters and consistent color tone which V-AF represents, videos can be created more conveniently.
