Introducing the NiSi 35mm ATHENA PRIME Full Frame Cinema Lens T1.9 (RF Mount). This lens is designed with maximum micro-contrast control and ultra-low chromatic aberration, providing unparalleled image quality with finer image details. With a large aperture of T1.9 and soft bokeh, this lens offers beautiful background separation, making it ideal for capturing stunning images and videos.

The Athena Prime Lens Series (RF mount) is equipped with a drop-in filter mount, which provides a more flexible workflow and creative control for filmmaking. Filmmakers can easily add ND filters, polarizers, or other filters to achieve their desired look without having to attach filters to the front of the lens. This feature also makes it easier to swap filters quickly and efficiently, saving time and reducing the risk of lens damage.

The lens has been designed to minimize focus breathing, ensuring that the change in field of view when adjusting focus from the minimum focus distance to infinity is extremely small. This feature is particularly important for filmmakers who need to maintain a consistent field of view when focusing on their subject. With the Athena Prime Series lens, filmmakers can achieve precise focus pulls and maintain a consistent look throughout their shots.

In addition, the NiSi Athena Prime 35mm lens is matched in weight and size with other lenses in the series, eliminating the need for rebalancing on a gimbal when switching between lenses. The 77mm filter thread and matched aperture and focus rings across the range also make it easy to use lens accessories such as filters and focus gears. The focus ring features 300° of rotation with fluorescent focal scales for precise focus pulls, making it easier for filmmakers to achieve their desired focus.

The NiSi ATHENA PRIME Full Frame Cinema Lens with a 35mm T1.9 focal length (RF Mount) is a versatile and high-quality lens that offers unparalleled image quality, flexibility, and creative control for filmmakers. Whether you’re shooting a feature film or a music video, the Athena Prime Series will help you easily achieve your creative vision.

Penelope ★★★★★

Finally got this mounted on my RF body and the ultra-low chromatic aberration is immediately noticeable—even wide open at T1.9, every edge stays clean. The focus ring has just the right dampening for puller work.

Carter D. ★★★★★

I’ve been testing this lens on a narrative short film and the sharpness even wide open at T1.9 is incredible with almost no fringing. The build feels solid and the focus ring has just the right amount of resistance for smooth pulls.

Violet ★★★★★

The micro-contrast control is what really sets this apart—skin tones look natural and detailed without feeling harsh, and the ultra-low chromatic aberration keeps edges clean even wide open. It's become my go-to for interior scenes where I need to balance sharpness with a bit of atmosphere.
