These are the best Rokinon lenses for real estate photography when you want rectilinear lines, corner-to-corner sharpness, and great value for interiors, exteriors, and walkthrough video—and here’s what to look for as you buy: favor rectilinear (not fisheye) designs with low distortion (clean verticals = faster edits), good corner performance at working apertures (f/5.6–f/8), strong flare control for window light, filter friendliness (threaded fronts vs bulbous elements that need 100mm holders), quiet and reliable AF if you shoot hybrid video, minimal focus breathing for moves, and manageable weight for gimbals; if you deliver video tours, prefer declicked apertures and geared cine housings, consistent front diameters for one ND, and long, repeatable focus throws; for exteriors with tall facades, a tilt-shift is gold for perspective control. Full-frame anchors: the Rokinon 14mm f/2.8 (also as AF and Cine T3.1) is the budget ultra-wide staple for tight rooms—profile its mustache distortion once and batch sync—while the premium XP 14mm f/2.4 cleans up corners and boosts micro-contrast for big listings; the AF 18mm f/2.8 FE is featherweight and threaded for filters (great on gimbals), the AF 24mm f/2.8 FE handles wider bedrooms and vignettes naturally, and the sleeper 20mm f/1.8 (or 20mm T1.9 Cine) gives a silky manual throw for precise hyperfocal pulls at blue hour. If you want constant-aperture zoom flexibility on Sony, the AF 12–24mm f/4 FE covers most interiors with quiet AF, and the AF 24–70mm f/2.8 FE is perfect for detail cuts and lifestyle inserts; for true perspective control on exteriors and tall atriums, the Samyang/Rokinon 24mm f/3.5 Tilt-Shift (latest version with sturdier locks) provides ±12mm shift and independent rotations—line-true verticals without keystoning. APS-C/MFT heroes: the Rokinon/Samyang 12mm f/2.0 NCS CS (and AF 12mm f/2 E on Sony) is a legend—tiny, filter-threaded, low distortion when profiled—ideal for condo interiors and handheld tours; DSLR APS-C users can lean on the 10mm f/2.8 (rectilinear ultra-wide) or the 16mm f/2.0 (a fast storytelling wide with excellent micro-contrast). Cine-first kits: the Cine DS/DSX 14mm T3.1, 20mm T1.9, and 24/35mm T1.5 share color and gear positions for quick swaps, while XEEN/XEEN CF wides (14 T3.1, 16 T2.6, 24 T1.5) add 95mm fronts, restrained breathing, and long throws for premium walkthroughs and commercial promos. Practical buyer tips: pick your anchor focal by footprint—14–16mm for tight bathrooms/kitchens, 18–20mm for most rooms without stretching, 24–35mm for details and vignettes; choose threaded fronts (12/2 APS-C, 18/2.8, 20/1.8, 24/2.8) if you rely on CPL/ND, or budget a 100mm holder for bulbous 14mm; standardize filter sizes for speed on set; if you film, test breathing (XEEN and DSX behave better) and keep weight low for gimbals; avoid fisheyes for deliverables—de-fish only as a last resort when a space is impossible. Shooting tips: keep the camera level and correct framing with lateral movement (don’t tilt—save tilt for a TS lens), shoot at f/5.6–f/8 for edge discipline, bracket 3–5 exposures for window pulls and blend gently, use a soft CPL lightly to tame glare on counters (watch for uneven skies at ultra-wide), place the lens near chest height (≈1.2–1.4 m) to keep furniture proportions natural, add a few tighter 24–35mm lifestyle details, and for video tours run a quality VND, walk heel-to-toe, and set a slow, consistent gimbal speed. Whether you’re squeezing a studio flat, showcasing a two-story foyer, or mixing handheld lifestyle clips with tripod-true windows, the best Rokinon real estate lenses combine disciplined geometry, corner-clean optics, and cine-friendly options—so your galleries look spacious, your lines stay straight, and your edits fly.
