Description and Reviews

Key Take-Aways:

The Irix 11mm T4.3 Cine is a manual-focus, full-frame ultra-wide cine prime with a weather-sealed build and no front filter thread. Irix lists the L-Mount version at 1,164 g with a 0.27 m close focus, and it costs $1,295. As of Oct 2026, the five linked videos lean positive. Charles Haine’s title says not to sleep on it, noting it gets respect as a real estate lens but also suits independent narratives in small spaces. Joey Lever’s title calls it insane wide-angle cineglass, and Nick Salazar, covering the Irix cine set, calls the line very strong choices in the budget space. Scott Balkum takes an extended look at the good, the bad and the ugly.
