DZOFILM Arles 18mm T1.4 FF Cinema Prime Lens (PL) - Cinematic wide angle with painterly look
The DZOFILM Arles 18mm T1.4 is a high-performance cine lens designed for full-frame and VistaVision sensors. With its unique painterly rendering and bright T1.4 aperture, the lens delivers a soft, natural and cinematic image with beautiful bokeh and high detail.
Perfect for movie productions that want to combine technical precision with a more organic, artistic look.
Cinematic & painterly image character
The Arles series is designed to create a more artistic image with soft contrast and subtle swirling bokeh at the edges - especially at open aperture.
- Smooth transitions and natural contrast
- Elegant, cinematic bokeh
- Controlled anamorphic flares
Bright T1.4 for maximum creative control
With an impressive T1.4 aperture, you get excellent low-light performance and the option of an ultra-short depth of field for dramatic image separation.
Full-frame & VistaVision coverage
The lens covers a 46.5mm image circle, making it compatible with both full-frame and larger sensors. The result is a richer image with increased depth of field and light transmission.
Minimal breathing & high optical precision
With advanced optical design and floating elements, focus breathing and chromatic aberration are minimized:
- 15 elements in 13 groups
- Aspherical and low dispersion elements
- Minimal distortion and high sharpness
Professional cine design
The Arles series is built for professional workflows with consistent design across the range:
- 95mm front diameter
- 0.8 MOD gears for focus and iris
- 270° focus rotation
