Redefining the Art of Cinematic Expression
The word "Cinema" comes from the Greek "Kinēma," meaning "movement," reflecting the constant rhythm of light and shadow. Simera, from modern Greek, means "today," symbolizing the capture of every fleeting moment.

Photography allows us to freeze time, preserving moments beyond our senses, while, as Jean-Luc Godard said, "cinema is truth 24 times per second," transforming still moments into a flowing narrative.Simera and Simera-C bridge still photography and cinematography, exploring the art of seeing and sensing. From stillness to speed, they open creative dimensions and inspire timeless visual storytelling.

More Information

Constant T1.5 Aperture for Cinematic Depth
The Simera-C series offers focal lengths of 28mm, 35mm, 50mm, and 75mm, covering a spectrum from wide-angle to medium telephoto to suit various shooting scenarios. With a constant T1.5 aperture throughout the series, these lenses excel in diverse lighting conditions. The ultra-shallow depth of field adds dramatic depth and spatial separation to each frame, while the ample light intake supports high-frame-rate shooting, ensuring rich tonality and texture even in low-light environments. Each image captures emotion and poetic nuance, embodying the essence of cinematic storytelling.

Exquisite Optics, Crafting a New Vision
With a meticulously crafted optical structure that incorporates aspherical lenses, low-dispersion elements, and high-refractive-index elements, Simera-C achieves outstanding resolution and exceptional chromatic aberration control, supporting 8K high-resolution production. The aperture blades have been increased from 14 to 16 compared to the Simera photography series, producing smoother, rounder bokeh and minimizing "onion rings" or irregular highlights. This natural and soft background blur enhances image purity and elevates the artistic aesthetics of every shot.

High Contrast for Dramatic Depth
The creamy bokeh and moderate high-contrast render the layers of light and shadow with intricate detail, with a striking contrast between highlights and shadows that accentuates the subject, adding dimensionality and spatial depth to the frame. Simera-C is perfectly compatible with high-resolution digital cinema cameras that provides broader dynamic range and rich textures, enhancing the flexibility of post-production.

Meticulous Craftsmanship, Vibrant Colors
Simera-C utilizes advanced vacuum coating and multi-layer anti-reflective coatings to minimize reflections and suppress flaring and ghosting, delivering accurate color reproduction even in backlit conditions. The internal anodized matte-black finish keeps reflectivity below 3.5%, significantly reducing internal stray light reflections. This superior anti-glare capability ensures pristine image quality under complex lighting, capturing both highlights and shadows with impressive clarity, contrast, and depth.

Lightweight Durability, Unrestricted Mobility
Crafted from aerospace-grade aluminum alloy, the all-metal body of the Simera-C series balances strength and lightness. Each lens weighs between just 380-450 grams, slightly heavier than a 330ml soda can but with a more compact form. This breaks free from the traditional constraints of cinema lenses regarding size and weight, allowing seamless use across handheld, gimbal, or drone setups. The internal dust and splash-resistant design ensure reliable performance even in the most challenging shooting environments.

Modular System Integration,Expanding Creative Boundaries
The ultra-compact design of the Simera-C makes it one of the few cinema lens sets compatible with the DJI Ronin 4D. When integrated with the DJI FLEX system, complex setups like low-angle, over-the-shoulder tracking, or tight interior car shots become easy to execute. This compatibility enriches the visual storytelling, enhancing the mobility, operability, and creative freedom on set.

Precision Consistency, Seamless Operation
The entire series features a 0.8 MOD gear pitch for both focus and aperture rings, ensuring compatibility with common follow focus systems and cinema accessories. The consistent gear positioning allows for lens and accessory swaps without the need for recalibration. Except for the slightly longer 75mm lens, the other focal lengths feature a uniform body length of 6.96cm. With similar lengths and weights, lens swaps on stabilizers or sliders are smooth, reducing the need for rebalancing and boosting shooting efficiency.A 210° focus throw offers ample precision for manual focus, with smooth, controlled operation allowing for subtle focus pulls or precise shallow depth-of-field control.

Cine-standard Design, Broad Compatibility
With a maximum image circle of 43.2mm, Simera-C covers full-frame sensors and is also compatible with Super 35 and APS-C formats. Featuring a native Sony E-mount, it works seamlessly with a wide range of cameras, from entry-level mirrorless to high-end systems like DJI Ronin 4D, and Sony Venice. The 28-50mm lenses share a consistent 67mm front diameter for M62 filters, while the 75mm lens uses a 72mm front diameter for M67 filters.

Refined Techniques for Superb Imagery
Each Simera-C lens undergoes rigorous quality control, crafted with micron-level precision using a combined milling process. This ensures exceptional manufacturing accuracy for each element, reducing optical aberrations like chromatic aberration and astigmatism. The entire series maintains consistent image quality, delivering uniform sharpness from center to edge, whether capturing wide-angle or telephoto scenes, meeting the demands of high-end production.
