Tokina Vista 65mm T1.5

Tokina Vista 65mm T1.5

The Tokina Cinema Vista 65mm T1.5 is a portrait-length prime that offers a natural sense of compression and subject separation without losing connection to the surrounding environment. On full-frame and large-format sensors, the 65mm provides a flattering perspective for close-ups and medium shots—ideal when you want intimacy and emphasis without the tighter feel of an 85mm. With a fast T1.5 aperture and a generous 46.7 mm image circle, it excels in low light and allows for smooth, cinematic control over depth of field with rich highlight rolloff.

Optically, the 65mm delivers the Vista series’ consistent rendering: neutral contrast, minimal chromatic aberration, and rounded bokeh courtesy of a 9-blade iris. Focus breathing is kept very low, maintaining stable framing during racks and dolly moves. Mechanically, the lens matches the Vista family’s production-friendly design with a 114 mm front diameter, standardized gear placement, and a long 300° focus rotation for precise, repeatable pulls. Dual-side engraved scales support AC visibility from either side, and the robust all-metal construction ensures durability in demanding shooting environments. The 65mm T1.5 is a go-to focal length for character-focused storytelling that benefits from subtle depth and an elegant, cinematic look.
