🎬 Tokina RMC 28mm F2.8 Cine-Mod Vintage Wide Angle Prime Lens for Sony E-Mount
This cine-mod lens is built from the classic Tokina RMC 28mm F2.8 manual-focus wide angle prime, a compact Japanese film-era lens known for practical 28mm coverage, vintage contrast, natural color, and a slightly organic rendering that modern clinical lenses often do not provide. The original 35mm still-photo lens has been prepared for cinematography and professional video capturing work: it is fully cleaned, adjusted, re-lubricated, adapted and adjusted for Sony E-mount, then equipped with two 0.8 pitch follow focus gears for controlled focus pulls and aperture operation.
The glass is in pretty good vintage condition, with only very minor wear typical for older manual lenses. These small marks are not expected to affect image quality, video capture, contrast, sharpness, or the final picture.
The 28mm focal length is one of the most useful vintage wide perspectives for filmmaking. On full frame Sony cameras it gives a natural wide-angle view for establishing shots, documentary work, travel, interiors, music videos, product B-roll, handheld shooting and environmental portraits. On APS-C / Super 35 Sony bodies it becomes a very practical normal-wide field of view. The lens covers a full frame sensor, making it suitable for Sony A7 / A9 / FX full-frame bodies as well as Sony NEX, a6000-series and other E-mount cameras.
This modification is based on the original RMC Tokina 28mm 1:2.8 lens made for 35mm film SLR systems. The RMC line belongs to Tokina’s vintage manual-focus era, when third-party Japanese manufacturers produced solid metal prime lenses for mounts such as Minolta MD, Canon FD, Nikon F, Pentax K and Olympus OM. “RMC” is associated with Tokina’s multi-coating technology, created to improve contrast and reduce reflections compared with simpler single-coated optics. TerPhoto keeps the vintage optical character while making the lens more practical for modern digital cinema workflows.

🎥 Why Choose This Lens?
If you want a real vintage wide prime adapted for modern Sony E-mount video work, this Tokina RMC 28mm F2.8 is a strong and affordable choice.

The two geared control rings make the lens far more comfortable on a follow focus or compact cinema rig, while the 80mm OD hood gives the front a more production-ready cine form. This is a practical lens for creators who want authentic vintage texture without giving up reliable handling.
