Sirui has expanded its Aurora series of full-frame autofocus lenses with the introduction of two new wide-angle options: the 15mm F1.6 and 24mm F1.4. Announced on November 9, 2026, these lenses complement the existing 35mm F1.4 and 85mm F1.4 models, offering creators a more versatile toolkit for video and stills work. The addition addresses growing demand among content creators for compact, high-performance wide-angle lenses that maintain consistent optical quality across focal lengths.
Both new lenses feature STM (stepping motor) autofocus systems with eye-tracking support, enabling smooth and accurate focus during dynamic shooting scenarios—particularly beneficial for vloggers, interviewers, and solo creators who rely on reliable subject tracking. This autofocus capability ensures minimal focus breathing and consistent performance when paired with compatible mirrorless cameras.
Built for real-world use, the Aurora 15mm F1.6 and 24mm F1.4 lenses include protection against moisture, rain, and dust, enhancing durability in unpredictable outdoor environments. This weather-resistant design supports creators who shoot in varied conditions, from urban streets to natural landscapes, without compromising reliability.
By maintaining a consistent f/1.6 to f/1.4 maximum aperture across the wide-angle range, Sirui enables shallow depth-of-field effects even at shorter focal lengths—a valuable asset for cinematic storytelling and low-light shooting. The lenses continue the Aurora series’ emphasis on compact form factors, helping creators keep their gear lightweight and agile.
With these releases, Sirui strengthens its position in the competitive creator-focused lens market, offering an affordable alternative to premium brands while delivering features tailored to modern hybrid shooters. The Aurora lineup now spans 15mm to 85mm, providing a cohesive set of primes optimized for full-frame mirrorless systems. Content creators seeking balanced performance, portability, and advanced autofocus can consider these lenses as part of a streamlined, all-in-one solution.
