DZOFilm Arles 35mm FF/VV Prime Cine Lens(PL mount feet) - Imperial

Speeding Towards Cinematic Visual Brilliance

The Arles Prime lens series draws its name from the picturesque town of Arles in southern France, a cherished source of inspiration for the artist Vincent van Gogh. Renowned for its abundant sunlight and vibrant colors throughout the seasons, Arles catalyzed van Gogh departure from conventional artistic styles. DZOFILM Arles Prime series, with its T1.4 fast apertures, captures the dynamic interplay of light and shadow, igniting fresh possibilities for artistic expression and cinematic creativity.

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. Compatible with large-format cinema cameras such as the RED V-Raptor VV and ARRI Alexa LF, it provides a sharp, neutral look that meets the demands of high-end post-production workflow.

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. This high-speed lens 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, and supports high frame rate shooting without compromising image quality.

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. This entire T1.4 cine lens series incorporates a protective coating on the front lens element to resist dust and dirt accumulation. The internal lens structure utilizes sandblasting and anodizing techniques to create a micro-level anti-reflective coating with ultra-low reflectivity. Across the entire focal range, these high-speed lenses maintain consistent color temperatures of around 5000K.

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. The built-in floating lens elements substantially minimize aberrations during focusing transitions from infinity to close-up, and minimal breathing immerses viewers in each frame.

Exquisite Optics, Superlative Performance

The Arles Primes achieve remarkable image quality through rigorous optical design, ensuring consistent high resolution while meeting the demands of high-end cinematography. The 14mm, 18mm, 21mm, and 25mm lenses each incorporate two aspherical elements (including one 50mm large-diameter aspherical element). The entire series uses low-dispersion optical materials to precisely suppress chromatic aberration.

Comprehensive Focal Range for Diverse Creation

With a comprehensive set of eleven lenses covering ultra-wide, standard, and telephoto focal lengths (14 to 180mm), the Arles series caters to a wide range of shooting scenarios while maintaining consistent visual aesthetics. Compatible with larger format sensors, it offers coverage for medium format cameras such as the Fujifilm GFX 50S and large format cameras like the ALEXA 65.

Robust Mechanical, Smooth Workflow

The Arles undergoes thorough testing to ensure structural integrity, including 100000 times fatigue testing and 1000hz high-frequency vibration. With micron-level precision, this wide-aperture prime lens guarantees smooth operation of the focus and aperture rings. The dual interchangeable imperial/metric focus scale design facilitates quick switching.

Compact Design for Seamless Integration

Designed to work seamlessly with industry-standard cine accessories, it includes a uniform front diameter of 95mm and an 86mm filter size over the whole range. With a standard 0.8 MOD gear pitch design and consistent positioning of focus and aperture rings across the series, lens and accessory swaps require no readjustment. Except for the 135mm and 180mm, all lenses maintain the same body length.

Flexible and Inclusive for Unlimited Innovation

The 1.5cm short rear part design allows Arles lenses to adapt flexibly to PL, EF, and LPL mounts such as ARRI Alexa Mini LF, RED V-Raptor, Canon C400, and Sony VENICE 2. Its compatibility with KOOP magnetic rear filters and various optical adapters opens up a wide range of creative possibilities. The lightweight, compact design (weighing between 1.4 and 1.9 kg) allows for easy integration with gimbals, stabilizers, drones, and Steadicams.
