Why Choose ARRI Master Prime Lenses?

ARRI / ZEISS Master Primes combine exceptionally fast T1.3 optics with the sharpness, contrast, and mechanical precision demanded by professional cinematographers. Their optical design delivers excellent performance even at wide apertures, allowing filmmakers to work in challenging lighting conditions while maintaining precise control over depth of field.

Unlike many slower cinema prime lenses, Master Primes provide additional flexibility for available-light filming and shallow-depth-of-field compositions. Minimal focus breathing helps preserve framing during focus pulls, while consistent optical characteristics make it easier to maintain a unified visual style.

This particular five-lens configuration includes a valuable 150mm T1.3 telephoto lens, providing an extended focal length option for dramatic portraiture, compressed perspectives, and specialty cinematography.

Compatible Cinema Cameras

ARRI / ZEISS Master Primes use professional PL mounts and are designed primarily for Super 35 image coverage. They are excellent companions for the ARRI ALEXA 35 Camera, which features a Super 35 sensor and ARRI's advanced REVEAL Color Science.

These lenses can also be paired with the Sony VENICE 2 Camera Package when configured with the appropriate PL mount and compatible Super 35 recording mode.

Compatible PL-mount configurations may also be available for other ARRI, Sony, and RED cinema cameras. Always verify lens coverage, recording format, and mount compatibility before production.

Recommended Camera Support and Accessories

For professional cinema production, pair the Master Prime lens set with the OConnor 2575D Ultimate Fluid Head for precise camera movement and stable support.

For studio production, commercials, and sophisticated camera movement, consider adding the JL Fisher 10 Dolly, available from San Diego Film Equipment.

For productions requiring different focal lengths or a more economical prime lens package, explore our ZEISS Ultra Prime Lens Set.

Frequently Asked Questions

What lenses are included in the ARRI Master Prime 5-Lens Set?

Are ARRI Master Prime lenses good for low-light filming?

Yes. With an exceptionally fast T1.3 maximum aperture, ARRI Master Prime lenses offer outstanding low-light capabilities. Their wide aperture allows cinematographers to work with less available light while achieving a shallow depth of field and pronounced background separation.

Can ARRI Master Prime lenses be used with Sony, RED, and ARRI cameras?

Yes, with compatible PL-mount configurations and appropriate sensor recording modes. Master Prime lenses work particularly well with the ARRI ALEXA 35 and can be used with the Sony VENICE 2 in compatible Super 35 modes. Other camera systems may also support these lenses with suitable mounts or adapters.

Are ARRI Master Prime lenses full-frame?

ARRI / ZEISS Master Prime lenses were designed primarily for Super 35 coverage. While some focal lengths may provide additional image coverage, full-frame compatibility depends on the individual lens, sensor dimensions, and recording mode. Lens coverage should be tested before using the set in full-frame configurations.
