Shooting commercials and a feature on Rokinons, love em.
Here are some examples and this was shot pro res film mode.
Cheers

Looks great. EF or MFT mount, digiboy?

Shot on BMDCC EF and Rokinon CineLens 24mm

I have the 14,24,35, 50 and 85. Excellent lenses for the money. I also have the 8 fisheye, which with the crop, doesn't look to bad. It has a little effect at the edge, but pushing in during post makes it go away.

If you can't afford Zeiss CP2 or Canon Cine-E lenses....the Rokinons are a great way to go.

Very nice use of these lenses guys.

I have the 14,24,35, 50 and 85..

What are you using for your 50mm? I didn't think Rokinon had released one yet - I'd definitely like to complete my set with a 50mm.

This is a 35mm Rok on an EF BMCC shooting RAW. I love the Rokinon lenses. Love them!

I assume you can use the rainbow imaging Nikon G adapter for MFT with the Rokinon lenses as it has an aperture control ring?

I've been working on amassing myself a nice set of Bower lenses(got the 14 and 35) and am absolutely thrilled with how beautiful they shoot. I can't wait until I have the budget to get the 85 and 24 to fill out the set.

I've been working shooting with the Rokinon 24 & 35mm for a week now. They deliver great images. And paired with Metabones Speed Booster; Amazing! But I gotta tell ya; they are cheaply made. They literally feel and sound like they're gonna break every time I'm mounting them onto the camera, sheeesh.

I've seen bunch of photos of Rokinon cinelenses on online shops and it looks like they focus wrong way, aperture is opposite too like in Nikon lenses. While it is possible that photos always had Nikon mount version of the cinelens on it (even when selling EF mount), I just saw Rokinon cine lens on blackmagic expo booth mounted on EF and it focused wrong way too. Can someone confirm that all the Rokinon cinelenses focus the wrong way?

I also saw Tokina's 11-16 prototype cine lens on blackmagic booth. That was MFT mount and it focused the wrong way too. Looks badly that still lens designers haven't really understood the meaning of cinelens. Tokina said their cinelens would be less that $2000 but who would pay that premium over normal Nikon mount Tokina if only thing you'd get more cine like were geared focus and declicked aperture.

It was shot on the MFT with an inexpensive ef to mft adapter.
I do also run a Tiffen T1 IR filter stacked with a variable ND filter along with
the Manfrotto MatteBox.

I have the Rokinon 35mm cine in EF mount and it focuses the "correct" way like other Canon/cine lenses.
