The Laowa Argus S35 Cine 3-Lens Bundle for Nikon Z delivers a matched set of 18mm, 25mm, and 33mm optics designed specifically for Super35 camera systems. With an ultra-fast T1 maximum aperture, these lenses give filmmakers strong low-light capability and precise depth-of-field control. The set targets narrative filmmaking, commercials, documentaries, music videos, and other creative projects where cinematic rendering and reliable mechanical compatibility matter.
The Argus S35 Cine lenses feature a T1 maximum aperture that enables shooting in challenging lighting while reducing the need for extra lighting. In addition, the aperture range from T1 to T11 lets you fine-tune exposure and depth of field for different scenes. A 9-blade iris produces pleasing, cinematic bokeh and smooth focus transitions, helping you separate subjects and shape the out-of-focus areas intentionally.
Each lens is built with 14 elements arranged in 9 groups, including specially selected optical elements. This construction minimizes chromatic aberration, distortion, and color fringing. As a result, the lenses deliver consistent sharpness and vibrant color reproduction across the frame, including when shooting wide open at T1.
The lenses use industry-standard cine-style gearing and a uniform 80mm outer diameter to provide smooth, accurate manual control and straightforward integration into professional rigs. The M77 front filter thread enables easy use with filters and matte boxes. Their compact metal housing offers robust durability and precise handling for both handheld and rig-based shooting scenarios.
