The SLR Magic MicroPrime CINE 50mm T1.4 is a manual-focus cinema prime for APS-C Sony E-mount cameras. Its fast T1.4 aperture gathers a lot of light and gives shallow depth of field, and the internal-focus design keeps the lens from breathing or rotating the front while you pull focus. It suits solo shooters and small crews who want a compact, affordable cine prime with geared focus and iris rings. Against pricier cine primes it gives up autofocus, weather sealing and electronic contacts, and its vintage-leaning rendering is softer wide open than modern glass.

Owners and reviewers treat it as a good-value entry into cine glass, praising the fast aperture, compact build and smooth focus throw. Most note that it is soft wide open and best stopped down, and that it is a manual lens with no electronic contacts.
The SLR Magic MicroPrime CINE 50mm T1.4 is a fixed 50mm cine lens in Sony APS-C E-mount, made for filmmakers and videographers using APS-C sensor cameras. Its fast T1.4 aperture allows shooting in low light and gives control over depth of field. The 50mm focal length gives a telephoto perspective for close-ups, portraits and detailed shots with a compressed background.
An internal focus mechanism reduces focus breathing, and the front of the lens does not rotate while focus is pulled. The lens produces sharp images with smooth, vintage-style bokeh and natural-looking out-of-focus highlights. Its construction is compact and durable.
The 82mm front thread lets filters mount directly on the lens without a matte box. The front diameter also allows a matte box to be attached. Lenses in the MicroPrime Cine series are similar in size and weight, which speeds up lens changes on a camera rig.
