Meike: autofocus prime lenses and cine kits at third-party prices

Meike is a Chinese camera lens maker best known for affordable third-party lenses. For years it made manual-focus glass, but its newer autofocus primes for Sony E, Nikon Z, Fujifilm X and L-mount cameras have drawn plenty of attention, including a medium-format 85mm for Fujifilm GFX. It also makes cinema lenses, adapters, filters, flashes and battery grips, and sells direct through its global store in US dollars.

It suits photographers who want a fast prime without paying the camera maker's own price, and video shooters building a matched set of cine lenses on a budget. Lenses ship from China: the site said DHL, FedEx or UPS normally takes 5 to 10 days, and standard shipping 15 to 25 days. Each lens listing names its mount, so double-check you're on the version for your camera.

The autofocus line splits into the compact Air series, the large-aperture MIX series and Pro lenses, and most focal lengths come in several mounts. The 25mm f1.7 Air, for example, was listed for Nikon Z, Sony E and Fujifilm X at the same $159. Meike also sells clear UV and CPL protection filters from $19 and $28, mount adapters for PL cine lenses, and drop-in filter adapters. Its cine range runs from Mini Prime kits for Micro Four Thirds to full-frame and Super 35 sets for cinema cameras, and the site publishes firmware updates and sample photos.

What's worth a look

Here are six picks from Meike's homepage when we checked, all at full price:

The 25mm f1.7 Air for Fujifilm X, at $159, is the cheapest way into Meike's autofocus range and a compact everyday lens. The 35mm F2 full frame lens for Sony E was $219.99, and the 85mm F1.4 MIX series portrait lens for Nikon Z was $399.99. The new 58mm F1.2 MIX lens for Fujifilm X, at $449, is the fast-aperture pick. For video, the Mini Prime T2.2 three-lens cine kit for Micro Four Thirds cameras was $1,079 with a free hard case, and the Pro Black Mist filter, from $26, softens highlights for a filmic look.

Current offers

We don't have a Meike code to share right now. Meike offers $20 off a first order when you subscribe to its emails, and its FAQ says official coupons can be used at checkout. The big FF Prime cine kits showed money off their regular price when we checked, such as the 6–7 lens kit from $4,788 against $6,089.

How to save more

• Take the $20 welcome offer on a lens, not a filter. It goes further as a share of a $159 lens than it does on top of a big order.
• Compare kits with single lenses. The full-frame cine kits showed savings on their regular price when we checked, but a kit only pays off if you'd use every focal length.
• Check the mount and the warranty. Meike's FAQ lists a one-year warranty, and fault exchanges must be raised within seven days of delivery.
