Best Prime Lens for Video

1. Rokinon 35mm Cine T1.5 Lens

Prime lens are a must have in your arsenal and Rokinon is our first recommendation for the best prime lens for shooting video. Prime lens have fixed focal length so you are not going to get any zoom on this one but you’ll get a much sharper image which is why it is preferred for portrait photography too but this specific model is made for video as it can be used with follow focus for smooth focus.

It has the perfect focal length for a prime lens and a de-clicked aperture, which gives much more control over aperture. It has a maximum aperture of f1.5 and a wide-angle field of view making it perfect prime lens for product reviews, especially for tech channels on Youtube. You can use it with a recommended Canon DSLR or any other camera like Nikon, Sony or Panasonic as it comes with different mount.
