Story

Introducing the SIRUI Jupiter, the first macro full-frame cine prime lens set (24mm T2, 35mm T2, 50mm T2) and the 28-85mm T3.2 full-frame cine zoom, which represent great bang for the buck given their excellent optical performance and solid build quality.

The first macro lens set developed by SIRUI consists of 3 focal lengths, a 24mm T2, a 35mm T2, and a 50mm T2. Covering full-frame and larger camera sensors with high sharpness and minimal optical aberration, this lens set can be used on various professional camera systems.

 

To meet the demand for close-ups and macro shots, the minimum focus distance is reduced to 0.24m/0.79ft, which allows users to get really close to the subjects.

The micro world presented by this lens set has a sharp and focused center with a gradual and pleasing fall off of contrast and light towards the edges.

In terms of speed, all lenses across the family feature a step-less aperture ring with a range from T2 to T22.

When used wide open at T2, the lens offers a nice shallow depth of field as well as an impressive low light performance. Also, the 11-blade iris contributes to a more round and smooth bokeh.

At T22, a deep depth of field on macro shots can be achieved.

Optics are coated to help eliminate veiling glare. The performance of sharpness, color reproduction, distortion control, and optical aberration control on this lens set can be said as good as many high-end cine lenses. Even big-budget productions can be handled pretty well. 


Always taking branded cine lenses as standard, focus breathing on this lens set is well controlled to make sure the audience won’t feel distracted while enjoying a story.

All 3 prime lenses are similar in size and weight with uniform 92mm filter thread and gear position, so you barely have to move the gears when switching lenses.


SIRUI Jupiter Series is available in native PL/EF mount, compatible with most professional cinema cameras on the market. E-mount and RF-mount adapters are offered for use on a wider range of popular full-frame mirrorless cameras.

Come with the 3 lens kit (not available for a single lens) is a specially designed hard case. Meets IP67 ratings with PP alloy construction, the hard case provides complete protection against extreme temperatures, water, dust, impact, etc.

Born for large-format camera systems, this 3x ratio zoom is a good combination of size and price. Featuring advanced mechanical and optical construction as well as stunning image quality, this zoom beast will soon prove itself as a new favorite on the market.

This lens covers a very practical zoom range from wide-angle to medium telephoto (28mm to 85mm), which greatly reduces the burden on filmmakers when going out filming.

The focus remains unchanged throughout the zoom range, so the story will be consistent and attractive.

Covering full-frame and large-format sensors, this zoom can be used on many large cinema camera systems, such as RED V-Raptor, ARRI ALEXA Mini, Canon C500 Mark II, Sony FX9, Sony VENICE.

The image is sharp without being overly sharp, leaning more towards a soft vintage look. The transition is smooth and natural with some pleasing bokeh in the background.

11-blade iris for round and smooth bokeh.

An aperture range of T3.2 to T22 is offered for precise exposure control. Thoughtful designs such as a step-less aperture ring, and identical 0.8mm pitch gears make this lens super nice to operate and use.

 

A long focus throw of 259° is designed for accurate and smooth focus pulling. The focus ring features a dual scale with both feet and meters, so the operator and the assistant can read the scale at the same time from different positions.

Focus breathing is well contained. No visible focus shift can be detected while changing focus.

Weighs only 2.5kg with an all-metal body, this lens looks super solid and premium.

You can tell how serious the R&D is about their job from such details as a 1/4” threaded hole, shims for back focus adjustment, etc. 

Come with the 28-85mm cine zoom is a specially designed hard case. Meets IP67 ratings with PP alloy construction, the hard case provides complete protection against extreme temperatures, water, dust, impact, etc.

SIRUI Jupiter Series is available in native PL/EF mount, compatible with many professional cinema cameras on the market. E-mount and RF-mount adapters are offered for use on a wider range of popular full-frame mirrorless cameras.

SIRUI has been vigorously developing its own brand since its establishment in 2001. With strong scientific research strength, excellent manufacturing technology, and a mature marketing system, SIRUI has now developed into a comprehensive enterprise integrating R&D, production, and sales.

To make itself one of the leading manufacturers of photographic equipment in China, SIRUI actively introduces advanced technology and various modern equipment and hires a group of outstanding R&D and sales talents. SIRUI’s sales network covers more than 60 countries and regions around the world, with more than 300 sales outlets.

Manufactured with high standards, SIRUI’s products have received numerous recognitions and awards at notable international events, including the German Redot Design Awards 2018, German Design Award 2018, CES 2019, and NAB Show 2019. SIRUI greatly appreciates the ongoing support from our users.

SIRUI has seen great success in the affordable anamorphic lens market. The macro prime lens set and 28-85mm cine zoom announced this time required more dedicated efforts. Nevertheless, the price of the Jupiter Series remains fairly competitive. We believe in the near future, more high-quality and affordable full-frame cine lenses developed by SIRUI will be seen on the market.
