DZOFILM Arles Prime Cine 5-Lens Kit with 14mm T1.9, 21mm, 40mm T1.4, 135mm T1.8 and 180mm T2.4 Lens for PL Mount, Black

Let your cinematic vision come to life with the DZOFILM Arles Prime Cine 5-Lens Kit, a collection inspired by the vibrant town of Arles, France, which famously influenced Vincent van Gogh. This kit includes five meticulously crafted lenses: 14mm T 1.9, 21mm, 40mm T 1.4, 135mm T 1.8, and 180mm T 2.4, all designed for PL Mount cameras. Each lens in the Arles Prime series is engineered to capture the dynamic interplay of light and shadow, offering filmmakers a toolset for unparalleled artistic expression and cinematic creativity. The Arles Prime lenses are renowned for their high-speed performance, featuring ultra-wide apertures like T 1.4, which ensure exceptional light intake. This makes them ideal for low-light and complex shooting environments, delivering a dreamy shallow depth of field that highlights every narrative detail with precision. Even at wide-open apertures, these lenses maintain even brightness transitions and clear rendering of intricate light and shadow details, supporting high frame rate shooting without sacrificing image quality. Precision-crafted for immaculate clarity, the Arles series employs advanced multi-layer nano-coating technology. A specially calibrated blue coating minimizes reflections, reducing stray light and ghosting, and ensuring stable, controllable flares. The internal lens structure features sandblasting and anodizing techniques, creating a micro-level anti-reflective coating with ultra-low reflectivity, which reduces diffuse reflections. This results in clean, sharp images, even when shooting directly against the light.

Consistent color temperatures around 5000K across the focal range faithfully reproduce vivid, true-to-life colors, presenting a natural, neutral visual style. The Arles Prime lenses boast 16 aperture blades, producing delightful circular bokeh and smooth transitions between in-focus and out-of-focus areas. At maximum aperture, they offer a soft, low-contrast look, with slight swirling bokeh on the periphery that adds a distinctive character to the image, enhancing the emotional depth of each frame. Built-in floating lens elements minimize aberrations during focusing transitions from infinity to close-up, improving optical performance and minimizing breathing to immerse viewers in each frame. These lenses achieve remarkable image quality through rigorous optical design, ensuring consistent high resolution for high-end cinematography. The 14mm lens includes two aspherical elements, enhancing image quality in low-light conditions. With micron-level precision manufacturing, these lenses maintain a lightweight and compact form while effectively correcting spherical aberration and coma, reducing onion-ring bokeh, and minimizing wide-angle distortion and astigmatism. Low-dispersion optical materials precisely suppress chromatic aberration, resulting in exceptional optical performance. The versatile Arles Prime lens set caters to a wide range of shooting scenarios, maintaining consistent visual aesthetics.

Compatible with larger format sensors, it covers medium format cameras with focal lengths from 25mm to 50mm and large format cameras like the ALEXA 65 with focal lengths from 75mm to 180mm, meeting the diverse needs of independent filmmakers and large-scale productions alike. Robust mechanical design ensures smooth operation of focus and aperture rings for precise focusing and accurate exposure. The dual interchangeable imperial/metric focus scale design facilitates quick switching, meeting diverse needs. The lenses have undergone extensive testing, including 100, 000 times fatigue testing and 1000Hz high-frequency vibration tests, ensuring durability and reliability. Designed for seamless integration with industry-standard cine accessories, the Arles lenses feature a uniform front diameter of 86mm filter size across the range. With a standard 0
