Tokina Vista 40mm T1.5

Tokina Vista 40mm T1.5

The Tokina Cinema Vista 40mm T1.5 is a distinctive mid-range prime that offers a perspective slightly tighter than a 35mm while maintaining a natural sense of space. This focal length has become increasingly favored by cinematographers for its ability to isolate subjects with subtle depth separation without feeling compressed or distant. With a fast T1.5 aperture and a 46.7 mm image circle, the 40mm fully supports full-frame and large-format sensors, delivering strong low-light performance and a balanced, realistic portrayal of character and environment.

Optically, the 40mm shares the Vista series characteristics of controlled contrast, smooth highlight rolloff, and rounded bokeh produced by a 9-blade iris. Focus breathing is kept minimal, making it reliable for dynamic focus pulls and moving-camera setups. Mechanically, the lens maintains the Vista uniformity with a 114 mm front diameter, matched gear positions across the lineup, and a 300° focus rotation for precise, repeatable marking. Dual-side engravings improve readability, and the robust all-metal construction ensures durability in professional production environments. The 40mm T1.5 stands out as a versatile and cinematic mid-wide option that fits seamlessly into the Vista ecosystem.
