Tokina RMC 135mm F2.8 Cine Mod Prime Tele Lens For Filmmakers | Sony E-mount!

🎬 Tokina RMC 135mm F2.8 Cine-Mod Telephoto Prime Lens for Sony E-Mount

A professionally prepared TerPhoto cine-mod version of the vintage Tokina RMC 135mm F2.8, converted for filmmakers, cinematographers, videographers and photographers who want the character of classic Japanese glass with more practical cinema-style handling. This Tokina RMC 135mm F2.8 is professionally adapted and adjusted for Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras. The original lens was designed for the 35mm film format, so it provides full-frame coverage when used on compatible Sony full-frame E-mount cameras.

For cinema work, the aperture has been de-clicked, allowing smooth and continuous iris adjustments instead of the stepped movement of the original photographic aperture mechanism. Two cine-style follow-focus gears are installed: one on the focus ring and another on the aperture ring, making the lens much easier to integrate into a follow-focus setup, camera cage or professional video rig.

The lens has been fully cleaned, mechanically adjusted and re-lubricated before conversion. Focus and aperture operation have been prepared specifically with practical filmmaking use in mind. A Sony E-mount adapter has also been fitted and adjusted as part of the modification. Glass is in good vintage condition. There is very minor age-related wear on the glass, typical of a lens of this period, which does not affect the final image in normal use. The exterior shows light signs of previous use consistent with its vintage age. Please examine the supplied photographs for the exact cosmetic condition of this individual lens.

At 135mm and F2.8, this lens is particularly useful for portraits, close-ups, interviews, compressed landscapes, narrative detail shots, music videos and cinematic inserts. On a full-frame Sony camera it retains the classic 135mm field of view, while on APS-C Sony bodies it provides an even tighter telephoto perspective. Manual focusing, the de-clicked aperture and dual geared controls make it especially suitable for controlled filmmaking. 80mm OD cine-style lens hood is included, giving the modified lens a more production-friendly front profile and helping it integrate visually and practically with other cine-modded lenses in a filmmaking kit.
