Samyang is soon launching a new “prima” lens series!

Samyang just posted the following teaser text on Instagram :

Prima Series from LK Samyang.
Portable. Practical. Perfect for creators.
Easier to carry, more enjoyable to shoot.

The wording strongly suggests that Samyang is about to launch a new line of compact prime lenses aimed at content creators, vloggers, and hybrid shooters. The use of the word “Prima” likely plays on both the Latin word for “first” and the photographic term “prime” — as in fixed focal length lenses.

This new series is expected to focus on portability and ease of use, possibly featuring:

  • Lightweight, travel-friendly construction
  • Quiet autofocus motors optimized for video
  • Fast apertures for shallow depth of field
  • Compatibility with popular mounts like Sony E, Canon RF, Nikon Z, and Fuji X

While no focal lengths or specs have been revealed yet, the teaser hints that Samyang is trying to appeal to the growing market of independent creators who prioritize compact, versatile gear. It’s possible the Prima Series will compete directly with Sigma’s I series or Sony’s own compact primes, but at a more affordable price point.
