Irix lenses are designed to complement each other when working in the set. Each has the same distances of focus and Irix gears to make swapping them much easier. Similar weight and size help to avoid rebalancing tripod, steadicam or gimbal. Irix lens optics are designed to provide the same picture. Preserving contrast, color, and sharpness across the whole set. When in need to add filters, most lenses come with 86mm filter thread and 95mm front diameter.
The Explorers set will allow you to easily start working on film set. These four lenses will let you shoot anything you want, especially cinematic portraits, narrative filmmaking, and documentary work with close portrait and wide-angle views. From real estate shots to close-up face portraits, the Explorers set covers it all. Each lens matches with the others, providing a consistent look across the whole range that not only stands out but also makes your post-production much easier. While preserving details and colors, these lenses give you an almost vintage look with unique bokeh.
Irix 21mm will be your go-to lens for any opening shot. This wide distortion-free lens will catch everything. A 21mm lens is also a great choice for any tight locations, where shooting from distance is not possible. Like events or weddings. With T1.5 this wide lens can cut out the background, producing beautiful bokeh.
Irix 30mm is a perfect medium shot lens. Either when trying to catch more of your interviewed person, leave some extra space around, or catch some b-roll it will perform great. On a crop sensor, it becomes closer to 45mm, which makes it a perfect portrait lens.
Irix 45mm lens is a favorite of current Irix users. A prime example of “Irix look”. With T1.5 shoot in any light conditions. Sharp across the whole range allows you to capture those beauty shots while wide open. Add an ND filter and get beautiful shots, that will stand out even in daylight.
Irix Cine 65mm A short telephoto cine lens, like the Irix 65mm, is essential for filmmakers, excelling in cinematic portraits, narrative filmmaking, and documentary work. It also enables filmmakers to achieve cinematic looks even in challenging lighting environments.
That will allow you to start shooting in any condition. Each with Magnetic Mount System for quick workflow and SR rated to protect your lens. Being scratch-resistant.
Irix Edge UV filter – neutral filter, that will protect your lens.
Irix Edge CPL filter – useful to control reflections on sunny days

German review of the Irix Cine lenses
"Die Bildqualität kann überzeugen und sich durchaus auch in Kombination mit teureren Kameras sehen lassen. Auch an die Besitzer von 8K-Kameras hat der Hersteller gedacht, denn die Optiken schaffen auch die dafür nötige Auflösung. Durch die kompakte, durchdachte Bauweise, gute Funktionalität und Bildqualität bilden die Irix-Cine-Optiken einen verlässlichen Prime-Satz, den man für unterschiedlich geartete Produktionen dabeihaben kann"
