Tokina Vista 135mm T1.5

Tokina Vista 135mm T1.5

The Tokina Cinema Vista 135mm T1.5 is a telephoto prime designed for powerful subject separation and a refined sense of compression, making it ideal for intimate close-ups, profile shots, and detail-oriented coverage. On full-frame and large-format sensors, the 135mm delivers a tighter, more intentional perspective than shorter portrait lenses while still maintaining a cinematic softness and dimensionality. Its fast T1.5 aperture and 46.7 mm image circle provide strong low-light performance and precise depth control, helping isolate your subject with clarity and emotion.

Optically, the 135mm carries the Vista line’s signature rendering: controlled contrast, smooth highlight rolloff, and rounded bokeh produced by a 9-blade iris. Focus breathing is kept very low, ensuring stable framing during delicate focus pulls—especially useful in dramatic dialogue, character moments, and slow-moving camera work. Mechanically, the lens shares the Vista family’s unified build standards, including a 114 mm front diameter, matched gear positions for effortless lens swaps, and a 300° focus rotation for precise, repeatable marks. Dual-side engraved scales improve AC visibility, and the all-metal construction withstands demanding professional production environments. The 135mm T1.5 completes the portrait end of the Vista lineup with a rich, cinematic telephoto look.
