NiSi Athena Prime 40mm T1.9 (L-Mount) product description

Professional Full-Frame Cinema Performance

The NiSi Athena Prime 40mm T1.9 is a high-performance cinema lens designed for L-Mount camera systems. Offering a unique focal length that sits between a wide-angle and a standard lens, it provides a natural perspective ideal for narrative filmmaking and commercial production. With a 46mm imaging circle, this lens provides full-frame coverage with exceptional edge-to-edge sharpness and minimal distortion.

Superior Optical Design

Engineered for maximum micro-contrast control and ultra-low chromatic aberration, the Athena Prime series ensures finer image details and unparalleled clarity. The fast T1.9 aperture allows for excellent low-light performance and a shallow depth of field, producing soft, cinematic bokeh for beautiful subject separation and background aesthetics.

Optimized for Professional Workflows

  • Minimized Focus Breathing: Maintains a consistent field of view when racking focus from minimum distance to infinity for professional results.
  • Matched Physical Specs: All lenses in the Athena series share the same weight and dimensions, eliminating the need for gimbal rebalancing.
  • Precise Control: Features a 300-degree focus rotation with fluorescent scales for accurate pulls in low-light environments.
  • Integrated Filter Support: Includes a 77mm front filter thread and a rear drop-in filter mount for maximum creative flexibility.
