>>3958312T lenses tell you exactly how much light passes through the lens. F numbers are just about meh bokeh and not about how much light actually goes through the lenses. Cine lenses have gears to put a follow focus on, and a large focus throw to make manual focus easier. Photo lenses need gears added. Cine lenses usually have better iq then photo lenses, but Cine lenses tend to cost as much as a new car and photo lenses are much cheaper and if you are new to cinematography you can get away with a photo lens and you don’t really need a Cine lens. If you have an mft camera you can get a reasonably priced Cine lens from slr magic or meike. If you have any other questions about lenses just ask.
