The main features of this new lens, which is only the first in the new AF video lens category, are as follows:

• LED indicating recording
• All V-AF series lenses have the same size, control ring, and balance
• Front electrical contacts for accessories (Anamorphic lens and MF ring)
• Compatible with Samyang Cine Kit for follow focus
• Custom Switch and button

V-AF was created for all video creators, from individual video creators to small productions and filmmakers. With the development of interchangeable lens cameras and the prevalence of video accessories, anyone can easily produce video content.

Samyang Optics will apply imaging-optimized elements to autofocus lenses to meet creators' desire to more easily create high-quality video content.

V-AF has increased compatibility from gimbal to drone by applying the consistent form factor from ultra-wide angles to semi-telephoto angles. The small size of ∅72.2 x 72.1 mm and light weight of 280 g have reduced the payload for drones. As the V-AF series provides a unified center of gravity and size, no additional setup is required, which significantly reduces time when using a gimbal.

There is a Tally lamp that shows the shooting status with an LED light so that even a single creator can quickly check the recording status. The focus ring has been redesigned to allow follow focus application without additional accessories. There is also a custom switch and focus button to set the optimized function for shooting.

With custom V-AF accessories for professional videographers and the uniform color tone represented by V-AF, videos can be created more conveniently.
