Many DPs and directors want to create a unique look for their project and many are turning to vintage lenses to do so. However, most vintage lenses don't cover the new sensor size, comments Cinematographer, Will Rexer. Sigma Cine gives cinematographers a great hybrid look. It also covers the new, larger sensors. Rexer explains the uniqueness of the Cine lenses, The shape of the iris is similar to the Leicas - giving that out-of-focus highlights of a Leica look. They have similar color to Master Primes and the contrast and roundness of the Cooke S4s. When you weave all the elements together, Sigma Cine creates its own unique, attractive look that is beautiful. I think a lot of filmmakers are going to fall in love with them.
