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

• LED indicating recording
• All lenses in the V-AF series have identical 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 optimized imaging elements to autofocus lenses to fulfill creators' desire to create high-quality video content more easily.

V-AF has increased compatibility from gimbal to drone by applying a consistent form factor from ultra-wide angles to semi-telephoto angles. The small size of ∅72.2 x 72.1 mm and lightweight of 280g have reduced the payload for drones. Since 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 for 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 consistent color tone represented by V-AF, videos can be created more conveniently.
