Specifications

Product Overview

The Thypoch Simera-C series are full-frame cinema lenses. By combining the design philosophy of classic rangefinder lenses with DZOFILM's cinema technology and cutting-edge optical design, these lenses achieve both high resolution and a compact, lightweight form factor. With a consistent wide-open aperture of T1.5 across the series, they deliver excellent imaging performance under various lighting conditions. The optical system incorporates ASPH aspherical lenses, ED lenses, and high-refractive index lenses to improve resolution and suppress chromatic aberration, making them suitable for 8K video production. The 16-blade aperture produces a beautiful, nearly circular bokeh, and the natural, soft background rendering enhances the subject and elevates the quality of your work.

Key Features

[Latest Optical Design and Large Aperture of T1.5]
The precise optical structure, which incorporates a floating design, maintains high sharpness and contrast consistently from wide open, despite its compact size. Furthermore, the large aperture of T1.5 and 16-blade iris create a smooth, beautiful, nearly circular bokeh that naturally emphasizes the subject. While the color reproduction is based on neutrality, the balance of contrast and flare is adjusted to achieve a vintage-like rendering.

[High Resolution with Suppressed Aberrations and Beautiful Bokeh]
Adopting an advanced optical design that combines ASPH aspherical lenses, ED lenses, and high-refractive index lenses. This effectively suppresses chromatic aberration and flare, achieving high resolution from the center to the edges of the frame. Additionally, Thypoch's high-precision aspherical lens technology suppresses onion ring effects within the bokeh, allowing for smooth and beautiful bokeh expression.

[Durable Construction and Mobility for Various Equipment]
The full-metal construction made of aircraft-grade aluminum alloy achieves both a lightweight design (approx. 390-470g) and high rigidity. The compact and lightweight design significantly reduces the equipment burden on the entire shooting system, delivering high performance in various shooting environments such as handheld shooting, gimbals, and drones.

[High Compatibility with 0.8 MOD and Practical Design for Optimized Workflow]
The focus ring and iris (aperture) ring feature 0.8 MOD gears, making them compatible with common follow focus systems and cinema accessories. By standardizing the gear positions, re-adjustment during lens or accessory changes is minimized. Furthermore, balancing on stabilizers and sliders is less troublesome, allowing for smooth lens changes. The 210° focus ring rotation angle provides high operational precision, enabling accurate focus pulling and precise control of shallow depth of field.
