Arles Prime 40mm T1.4 Overview

The DZOFILM Arles Prime is a 40mm T1.4 cine lens built for large format sensors such as Vista Vision. It features a 95mm front diameter and multi-layer nano-coating technology. Interchangeable PL and EF mounts provide wide compatibility with various cine cameras. The lens is supplied new.

Suited For Large Format Cinematography

This lens suits cinematographers working with Vista Vision sensors who need a fast T1.4 aperture for low-light scenes and shallow depth of field. The consistent gear pitch and focus distance simplify lens changes on set. Buyers requiring autofocus as a primary focus method should note the lens offers both auto and manual focus modes.

40mm Focal Length And T1.4 Aperture

The 40mm focal length and T1.4 aperture comfortably handle wide-angle cinematic shots with strong subject separation. The 95mm front diameter supports M86 filter systems via the standard filter screw thread, though the 14mm size is not supported. At wide-open aperture the lens maintains even brightness transitions and clear rendering of intricate light and shadow details.

Questions about this item

Does this lens require a camera body with an ARRI PL mount to function?

Yes, the supplied mount is ARRI PL; an interchangeable EF mount is offered separately for cameras that use that fitting.

Will the 95 mm front diameter and M86 filter thread work with matte boxes and filters I already own?

The 95 mm front diameter matches the series standard, and the M86 thread accepts the M86 filter system; note that the 14 mm focal length is not supported.

How can I confirm the T1.4 aperture is performing correctly after mounting the lens?

Open the iris to T1.4 and verify even brightness across the frame with smooth shallow depth of field; the multi-layer nano coating should suppress flare in high-contrast scenes.
