Laowa Argus FF Cine 3-Lens Bundle (28mm,35mm,45mm) - Nikon Z

Laowa Argus FF Cine 3-Lens Bundle (28mm, 35mm, 45mm) - Nikon Z — Ultra-fast T1 aperture for low-light cinema

This Laowa Argus FF Cine 3-Lens Bundle for Nikon Z includes three full-frame cine primes (28mm, 35mm and 45mm) designed for filmmakers who need an ultra-fast T1 aperture and cinematic image quality. The lenses deliver full-frame coverage and work well in low-light conditions, while providing precise manual control and consistent handling across the set.

Ultra-fast T1 aperture and cinematic look

The hallmark of the Argus FF Cine series is the T1 maximum aperture. This ultra-bright aperture enables shooting in challenging light without relying heavily on artificial illumination. As a result, you get strong depth-of-field control, smooth focus fall-off, and pronounced subject separation with pleasing bokeh.

Optical design and image quality

Laowa equips these cine primes with premium optical elements, including Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) glass and aspherical elements. This combination helps reduce chromatic aberration, distortion, and color fringing. Therefore, images stay sharp and maintain accurate color rendition across the frame, even when the aperture is wide open.

Build and cinema-friendly handling

These lenses feature robust metal housings and are built to withstand professional production use. Furthermore, Laowa keeps uniform lens dimensions and gear positions across the series. Consequently, rigging, lens changes, and lens balancing on gimbals or rigs become more predictable and efficient.

Accessory integration and compatibility

The Argus FF Cine lenses include industry-standard cine-style gearings for both focus and aperture. This allows seamless integration with follow-focus systems, matte boxes, and other cinema accessories. The bundle shown here is supplied in the Nikon Z mount, and the Argus series generally offers mount options for popular full-frame cinema camera systems.

Use cases and recommended workflows

These primes suit narrative filmmaking, documentaries, commercials, and any production that benefits from a cinematic shallow depth of field and reliable low-light performance.
