Irix Cine Lens 15mm T2.6 PL-mount Metric

Ultra-wide shots often force a compromise: either you accept soft edges, focus breathing, and heavy distortion, or you rent a lens that costs more than the camera. The Irix Cine 15mm T2.6 solves this by delivering a true full-frame 110° field of view with crisp, controlled optics in a robust, weather-sealed body. Built for PL-mount cinema cameras, it gives you a prime lens that handles interiors, landscapes, and tight spaces without losing detail or colour fidelity.

Who is it for

Cinematographers, videographers, and rental houses who need a reliable ultra-wide prime for narrative, documentary, or commercial work. It suits operators using PL-mount cameras such as RED, ARRI, or Blackmagic, and anyone who values consistent gear positioning and metric focus marks for precise pulling.

Main features
