DZO Arles 21mm T1.4 FF/VV Prime Cine Lens - PL Mount, Feet

Unparalleled Spatial Visual Impact

This High Speed Prime Cine Lens - Arles Series - covers Vista Vision sensors with a 46.5mm image circle, providing greater light transmission for enhanced depth and dimension in your visuals. This results in broader, more immersive images with rich detail. T1.4 aperture and unique field curvature design offer exceptional focus control, creating a three-dimensional visual experience with smooth transitions between in-focus and out-of-focus areas.

High-Speed Prime for Ultimate Visual Quality

With its T1.4 ultra-wide aperture, the Arles Prime provides ample light intake, excelling in low-light and complex shooting conditions, since it captures images quickly in low-light conditions, reducing exposure time and increasing shutter speed. This high-speed lens for shooting creates stunningly dreamy shallow depth of field, precisely highlighting every narrative detail, especially under low light.

At wide-open aperture, the lens ensures even brightness transitions and clear rendering of intricate light and shadow details. This fast glass supports high frame rate shooting without compromising image quality, producing smooth and exquisite cinematic footage cinematographers demand.

Crafted Precision for Immaculate Clarity

Using advanced multi-layer nano-coating technology, the Arles series features a specially calibrated blue coating that ensures precise flare control with minimal stray light and ghosting, plus exceptional color accuracy across the spectrum.

For cinematographers, this means total control over your flares when shooting into light sources, while maintaining rich, true-to-life color rendering that holds up even in challenging lighting conditions. The specially calibrated blue coating ensures natural color reproduction, delivering a modern yet distinct look that enhances the immersive quality of the imagery.

This entire T1.4 cine lens series incorporates a protective coating on the front lens element to resist dust and dirt accumulation, ensuring high light transmission and consistent optical clarity.

The internal lens structure utilizes sandblasting and anodizing techniques to create a micro-level anti-reflective coating with ultra-low reflectivity, reducing diffuse reflections. Even when shooting directly against the light, the lenses deliver clean and sharp images.

Across the entire focal range, these high-speed lenses maintain consistent color temperatures of around 5000K, faithfully reproducing vivid, true-to-life colors and presenting a natural, neutral visual style for video production.

Cinematic Depth with Painterly Rendering

The Arles Prime boasts 16 aperture blades, delivering delightful circular bokeh and ensuring smooth transitions between in-focus and out-of-focus areas. At maximum aperture, it presents a soft low-contrast look, while slight swirling bokeh on the periphery adds a distinctive characteristic to the image, enhancing the emotional depth of each frame.
