NiSi Cine Lens Set Athena Prime Rewind PL-Mount

NiSi Cine Lens Set Athena Prime Rewind PL-Mount

• Vintage Character with Modern Control - Through deliberate optical design, the NiSi Athena Rewind simulates film-era lens characteristics including amplified aberrations, reduced resolution at wide apertures, and enhanced softness for an authentic vintage look without relying on actual old glass.
• Adjustable Stylization via Aperture - Vintage character is strongest at T1.9, progressively diminishes through T2.8 (a balanced sweet spot), and by T5.6-T8 the lens behaves close to a modern cinema lens - providing a creative “dial” for cinematographers.
• Distinctive Bubble Bokeh - At wide apertures, the NiSi Athena Rewind produces signature bubble bokeh with bright edges and darker center in out-of-focus highlights, most pronounced on the 35mm and 50mm, and controllable as it fades by approximately T4.0.
• Warm, Expressive Flares - Flare intensity is significantly increased over the standard Athena Prime with a warm color tone, adding cinematic character to backlit scenes and practical lighting setups.
• Color Consistent with Standard Athena Prime - The NiSi Athena Rewind’s color rendering closely matches the standard Athena Prime, making it easy to intercut or mix both lens sets on set without post-production color correction.
• Comprehensive 5-Lens Focal Range - Full-frame coverage from 14mm ultra-wide to 85mm portrait, with a 46mm imaging circle supporting all full-frame cinema cameras and larger format sensors.
• 300° Focus Ring with Fluorescent Scales - Precision focus pulls are made easy with 300 degrees of rotation and fluorescent focal markings for visibility in low-light shooting environments.
• Matched Weight and Size Across All Lenses - Seamless lens swapping without the need for gimbal rebalancing, rig adjustment, or matte box reconfiguration - saving valuable time on set.
• Rear Filter Mount for Creative Flexibility - Built-in rear filter slot allows for quick gel and filter changes without disturbing the front of the lens, maintaining a streamlined workflow.
• Minimal Focus Breathing - Ensures a consistent field of view during focus adjustments, critical for cinematic pull-focus work and professional video production.
• Retained Barrel Distortion for Organic Feel - All NiSi Athena Rewind lenses preserve barrel distortion, contributing to the organic, analogue character that distinguishes them from clinically corrected modern optics.
