ARLES PRIME

High-Speed Full Frame Prime Lens for Cinematic Visual Brilliance

 

 

Arles Prime: 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's departure from conventional artistic styles. DZOFILM's Arles Prime series, with its T1.4 fast apertures, captures the dynamic interplay of light and shadow, igniting fresh possibilities for creative expression and cinematic creativity.

Arles is available in the following focal lengths: 14/21/25/35/40/50/75/100/135/180mm

Features Arles Prime

1.T1.4 High-Speed Prime for Ultimate Visual Quality
With a T1.4 ultra-wide aperture, the Arles Prime delivers abundant light intake, excelling in low-light and complex shooting conditions. It creates a stunningly dreamy shallow depth of field, precisely highlighting every narrative detail. The lens ensures even brightness transitions and precise rendering of intricate light and shadow details at a wide-open aperture. It supports high frame rate shooting without compromising image quality, producing smooth and exquisite cinematic footage.

2. Controlled Flaring and Vivid Image
Using advanced multi-layer nano-coating technology, the Arles series features a specially calibrated blue coating to minimize reflections and effectively reduce stray light and ghosting. This ensures stable and controllable flares. 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 focal range, color temperatures remain consistent around 5000K, faithfully reproducing vivid, true-to-life colors and presenting a natural, neutral visual style.

3. 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. Simultaneously, a slight swirling bokeh on the periphery adds a distinctive characteristic to the image, enhancing the emotional depth of each frame. The built-in floating lens elements substantially minimize aberrations during focusing transitions from infinity to close-up, improving optical performance. Its minimal breathing immerses viewers in each frame, amplifying the emotional impact of the scenes.

4 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, 21mm, and 25mm lenses each incorporate two aspherical elements (including one 50mm large-diameter aspherical element), which improves 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. The entire series uses low-dispersion optical materials to suppress chromatic aberration precisely, resulting in exceptional optical performance. 

5 Large Format Coverage
With a comprehensive set of ten lenses covering ultra-wide, standard, and telephoto focal lengths, 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 43.8 × 32.9mm format with focal lengths ranging from 25mm to 50mm, as well as large format cameras like the ALEXA 65 (54.12 × 25.59 mm) with focal lengths from 75mm to 180mm, satisfying the diverse needs from independent filmmaking to large-scale film production.

6 Robust Mechanical, Smooth Workflow
The Arles has undergone thorough testing to ensure structural integrity. It guarantees smooth operation of the focus and aperture rings for precise focusing and accurate exposure with micron-level precision. The standard 0.8 MOD gear pitch avoids the need for readjustments while swapping lenses and accessories, enhancing on-set efficiency. The dual interchangeable imperial/metric focus scale design facilitates quick switching, meeting diverse needs. 

7 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. Except for the 135mm and 180mm lenses, all other focal lengths maintain consistent lengths, enhancing efficiency on set. Weighing between 1.4 and 1.9 kg, they are easy to integrate with gimbals, stabilizers, drones, and Steadicams, opening limitless shooting possibilities, including handheld, vehicle-mounted, shoulder-mounted, and aerial shots. (Note: The 14mm lens is incompatible with threaded filters.)

8 Flexible and Unlimited Innovation
Equipped with interchangeable PL and EF mounts, the Arles offers broad compatibility with various cinema cameras. It is also compatible with DZOFILM KOOP magnetic rear filters, which inspire endless creative possibilities.
