MASTER PRIME SINGLE:18mm

A legendary wide-angle prime that redefined the limits of optical engineering. Co-developed by ARRI and Zeiss, it offers a perfect balance of ultra-fast speed (T1.3) and surgical precision. Designed for Super 35mm cinematography, it is world-renowned for having virtually zero geometric distortion, ensuring that straight lines—like architectural edges or horizon lines—remain perfectly straight even at a wide 18mm field of view.

Key Features:
Ultra-Fast T1.3 Aperture: Provides an extra stop of light for low-light shooting and unmatched control over shallow depth of field.
Zero Breathing & Distortion: Patented Dual Floating Elements eliminate field-of-view shifts during focus pulls and keep images distortion-free.
High Contrast & Resolution: Exceeds 8K standards with deep blacks and superior flare control thanks to the T XP coating*.
LDS Integration: Built-in Lens Data System transmits frame-accurate focus, iris, and DoF metadata to the camera.
Uniform Ergonomics: Consistent 114mm front diameter and gear positions across the set for lightning-fast lens changes.
Robust Mechanical Design: Features a cam-driven focus mechanism for expanded, individually calibrated focus scales.
