The ARRI Zeiss Ultra 16 set of 9 lenses (6mm to 50mm) represents the pinnacle of optical engineering for the Super 16mm format, delivering a modern, high-contrast look that elevates 16mm film and digital sensors to their highest potential. Developed in a prestigious partnership between ARRI and Zeiss, these primes were designed to provide the same elite performance characteristics as the 35mm Master Primes but optimized for the smaller S16 image circle. Every lens in this comprehensive set features a consistent T1.3 aperture, enabling exceptional low-light performance and a remarkably shallow depth of field rarely seen in this format. With a unified 95mm front diameter, standardized gear positions, and precise color matching to the Ultra Prime and Master Prime families, this metric-scale kit is the professional standard for narrative features, high-end documentaries, and commercials seeking an organic yet sharp cinematic texture.
