Wide-Angle Prime for Full-Frame Cinema

The NiSi Aureus Prime 24mm T1.4 is a full-frame cinema lens built for professional cinematographers. Its PL mount fits Arri Maxi PL cameras and compatible adapters, integrating directly into existing production rigs. The 46mm image circle covers full-frame sensors with a wide-angle field of view. Manual focus operation gives the operator complete control over every focus pull.

T-Stop Range and Focus Mechanics

The iris opens from T1.4 to T22, providing exposure control across varied lighting conditions. A 300-degree focus rotation allows precise, repeatable manual focus adjustments. Virtually zero focus breathing keeps the framing stable during focus transitions, preventing unwanted shifts in composition. Dual focus scales with glow-in-the-dark markings assist focus pulling in low-light environments.

Build Quality and Front Diameter

The lens barrel measures 90mm at the front and accepts 86mm screw-in filters via the front thread. Dimensions of 4.33 by 3.54 by 3.54 inches and a weight of 2.8 pounds make it manageable on matte boxes and follow-focus systems. Neutral, accurate colour reproduction is supported by ultra-low dispersion elements in the optical design. The PL mount ensures secure attachment to cinema camera bodies.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 24mm T1.4 or a different focal length?

The 24mm T1.4 gives a wide-angle field of view on full-frame sensors with a 46mm image circle. Pick it when you need that perspective; choose another focal length for tighter or wider framing.

What does the T1.4 aperture deliver on set?

T1.4 provides a bright, calibrated transmission stop for low-light exposure and shallow depth of field while the 300-degree focus rotation lets you pull focus precisely.

How does the PL mount affect compatibility?

The Arri Maxi PL mount fits any PL-mount cinema camera or adapter, including drop-in filter variants, so the lens integrates directly into standard professional rigs.
