Unlike the dominant trend in modern cinema lenses, the S8\/i are designed using only <strong>spherical elements<\/strong> \u2014 no aspherical elements \u2014, a deliberate design choice that produces a unique organic and cinematic quality: soft spherical bokeh, minimal chromatic aberration, and a depth of field that, however shallow, always remains visually organic with smooth, three-dimensional focus transitions. With an image circle of <strong>46.31mm in diameter<\/strong>, they fully cover Full Frame sensors including the ARRI ALEXA LF, ALEXA Mini LF, and Sony Venice.<\/p>\n<p>The S8\/i also represent an evolution in ergonomics and balance over the S7\/i: with a uniform <strong>104mm front diameter<\/strong> across the full set and a more compact, lightweight design, they are specifically optimised for handheld and Steadicam operation, without sacrificing any performance on a static support. Their maximum aperture of T1.4 delivers exceptional depth-of-field control and flare characteristics, with low-light performance unmatched in their category.
