It provides full-frame sensor coverage, making it suitable for Sony Alpha full-frame bodies as well as APS-C Sony E-mount cameras.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFor cinema use, the original aperture mechanism has been de-clicked, allowing smooth and continuous iris adjustments while recording. Two follow-focus gears are installed: one on the focusing ring and one on the aperture ring. This allows precise operation with standard follow-focus systems and makes the lens much more convenient for rigged cinema camera setups.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBefore sale, the lens has been fully cleaned, mechanically adjusted and re-lubricated. Focus operation has been prepared for smooth manual use, and the Sony E-mount adaptation has been installed and adjusted specifically for reliable operation on compatible cameras.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe glass is in good vintage condition. As expected from an original vintage optic, there may be very minor age-related or cleaning wear visible under close inspection. These minor signs are typical for lenses of this age and do not affect normal image quality or professional video use. Please study the listing photos carefully, as they show the actual lens being offered.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCosmetically, the lens is in good vintage condition with normal signs of previous use. The installed cinema gears and adaptation give the lens a functional cine-style appearance while preserving the original Yashica optical system.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Yashica ML line was introduced during the development of the Contax\/Yashica system in the mid-1970s. “ML” refers to Yashica's multi-layer-coated lens series, positioned above the company's more basic DSB optics. It was designed as a compact manual-focus wide-angle prime for 35mm film cameras. This TerPhoto version retains that original vintage optical character while adding the features needed for modern digital cinematography.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis particular A126-series example belongs to the later classic production style of the ML 28mm F2.8. Its combination of moderate wide-angle perspective, vintage coatings and manual mechanical controls makes it especially attractive for filmmakers looking to move away from the clinically perfect rendering of modern lenses.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOn a full-frame Sony camera, 28mm provides a versatile wide-angle field of view suitable for establishing shots, environmental portraits, handheld filmmaking, interiors, documentary work, music videos, street scenes and narrative cinematography. On APS-C Sony cameras it produces a field of view roughly comparable to a 42mm lens on full frame.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e⚙️ Technical Specifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLens Mount - Sony E-mount\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFocal Length - 28mm\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Aperture - F2.8\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Aperture - F22\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAperture Blades - 6\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Focus Distance - 0.3m\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFilter Thread - 52mm\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFocus Type: Manual\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSerial Number - A1261754\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e🎬 Why Choose This Lens?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Yashica ML 28mm F2.8 is an excellent choice for filmmakers who want genuine vintage Japanese rendering without sacrificing practical cinema operation. Its 28mm focal length is wide enough for establishing shots, interiors and handheld work while remaining natural enough for environmental portraits and narrative scenes. Full-frame coverage makes it especially useful with Sony Alpha cinema and hybrid cameras, while the de-clicked aperture and dual follow-focus gears provide substantially better control on a professional rig. Unlike a simple mount-adapted vintage lens, this example has been cleaned, adjusted, re-lubricated and prepared specifically for modern filmmaking use.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e📦 This Offer Includes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e✔ Yashica ML 28mm F2.8 Cine Mod Lens\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e✔ Sony E-Mount Adaptation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e✔ 2x Follow Focus Gears for Focus and Aperture Control\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e✔ Lens Hood\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e✔ Front Lens Cap\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e✔ Rear Lens Cap\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yashica","offers":[{"title":"Sony E-mount","offer_id":66994806653043,"sku":"880049657063","price":169.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0566\/6429\/3491\/files\/yashica-ml-28mm-f28-cine-mod-vintage-wide-angle-prime-sony-e-mount-terphoto-store-2191874.png?v=1792979592","url":"https:\/\/terphoto.store\/products\/yashica-ml-28mm-f2-8-cine-mod-vintage-wide-angle-prime-sony-e-mount","provider":"TerPhoto Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
