ARRI SIGNATURE PRIME 16-32MM ZOOM LENS

The ARRI Signature Zoom 16-32mm T2.8 is a high-performance wide-angle cine lens designed to complement the renowned Signature Prime series. It provides a natural, “organic” look that is characterized by smooth skin tones, creamy bokeh, and exceptional clarity, even in 8K+ resolutions. Built with a magnesium barrel for a lightweight yet robust feel, it is optimized for large-format sensors but remains universally compatible with Super 35 cameras via its LPL mount.

Key Features:

Consistent T2.8 Aperture: Maintains a fast T2.8 stop across the entire zoom range, eliminating the need for exposure “ramping” while zooming.
Signature Look: Perfectly matches the color, contrast, and skin rendition of Signature Primes, allowing for seamless intercutting between prime and zoom shots.
Large Format Coverage: Covers sensor sizes up to Large Format (LF) Open Gate, ensuring compatibility with the latest high-resolution cinema cameras.
Short Close Focus: Offers a minimum object distance of approximately 7.6 inches (0.194m) from the lens front, ideal for tight POV sequences and intimate close-ups.
Advanced Data Systems: Features the LDS-2 (Lens Data System) and is Cooke /i Technology compatible, providing high-precision metadata for VFX and post-production.
Flare & Contrast Control: Specially coated to provide controlled flaring and lower contrast, which helps preserve detail in shadows—a critical feature for HDR workflows.
Magnetic Rear Filter Holder: Compatible with the Signature Prime magnetic filter system, allowing cinematographers to add custom diffusion or nets easily.
