Up for sale is my set of Veydra primes (25mm, 35mm, 50mm, 85mm) for Sony E-mount. They have served me well on my FS7, and several other E-mount cameras whenever I've needed cinema-level mechanics and matching optics on a project. They are also super compact and light with matching front diameters and gear placement making for excellent gimbal lenses. They are a joy to use with a follow focus (300-degree focus rotation) and so much easier to set up with wireless focus units than still lenses. I've found them to be excellent optical performers, as they are sharper than many higher-end cine lenses such as Zeiss CP.2's and handily beat other inexpensive lenses like the Rokinons. They also have pleasing somewhat easy flares and as such, they can have both a modern clean look or if you remove a hood or top flag a more vintage look.
These Lenses have some excellent reviews online, including a very thorough comparison to CP.2s done by Roger Cicala at lens rentals:

And compared to Rokinons:

The lenses are optically perfect with no scratches, fungus, or haze. The Mechanics are also very good with smooth focus and aperture, consistent through the lenses. The lens exteriors are all very clean with only the 25mm having a chip in the anodizing on the aperture gear from a FF. It doesn't affect functionality.
I will accept offers and potentially break the set to sell individual lenses.
