DZOFilm Arcana 32/45/75mm T2.1 1.5x Anamorphic 3-Lens Kit (ARRI PL, Imperial, Titanium Finish)

The DZOFilm Arcana Anamorphic 3-Lens Kit combines matched 32mm, 45mm and 75mm full-frame cinema primes in a practical ARRI PL-mount set. Each lens delivers a T2.1 maximum aperture, a stable 1.5× horizontal squeeze, neutral anamorphic flares and dramatic oval bokeh in a compact titanium-tone aluminum housing. Model DZO-ARBUN3PLI provides Imperial (feet) focus marks on all three lenses, with a protective hard carrying case for transport. Three distinct cinematic perspectives, one consistent lens family.

DZO-ARBUN3PLI is a three-lens DZOFilm Arcana 1.5× hybrid anamorphic prime kit comprising 32mm, 45mm and 75mm lenses with ARRI PL mounts, full-frame 43.3mm image circles, T2.1–T16 apertures and Imperial focus scales. Minimum focus distances from the sensor plane are 0.48m / 1ft 7in, 0.53m / 1ft 9in and 0.78m / 2ft 7in respectively. The 32mm, 45mm and 75mm weigh 709g, 695g and 709g per lens; each has a 14-blade elliptical iris, 270° manual focus rotation, 80mm front diameter, M77 filter thread and M0.8 geared rings. Construction is aluminum alloy with a titanium-tone finish, not solid titanium. The three primes and their hard case are included; camera adapters and external autofocus systems are not implied.

Hybrid Anamorphic Cinema Optics

1.5× Squeeze and T2.1 Full-Frame Clarity

The Arcana optical system uses a hybrid anamorphic design to capture wide cinematic images over a 43.3mm full-frame image circle. A true 1.5× horizontal optical squeeze remains consistent across focus distances, helping reduce the change in facial proportions often associated with variable squeeze. Each fixed-focal-length prime opens to T2.1 and stops down to T16. Use the camera or post-production de-squeeze setting rather than assuming the lens produces a finished aspect ratio on its own.

Elliptical Iris and Oval Bokeh

Pronounced 2×-Style Bokeh at a Real 1.5× Squeeze

A 14-blade elliptical iris complements the hybrid anamorphic optics to create elongated background highlights and distinctive subject separation. DZOFilm describes the bokeh as resembling a classic 2× anamorphic aesthetic, but the actual optical squeeze factor is 1.5×, not 2×. The T2.1 maximum aperture gives cinematographers room to shape highlights and background depth in music videos, commercials and dramatic scenes.

Anamorphic Close-Focus Control

Three Close-Focus Distances for Creative Framing

The 32mm focuses to 0.48m / 1ft 7in, the 45mm to 0.53m / 1ft 9in, and the 75mm to 0.78m / 2ft 7in, each measured from the camera sensor plane. These distances give crews a choice of wider environmental detail, natural dialogue composition or tighter portrait framing. The lenses share 270° manual focus rotation, while Imperial focus marks support repeatable feet-based follow-focus pulls.

Neutral Anamorphic Flares

Light-Responsive Horizontal Flare Character

The front cylindrical optical design is intended to control distortion and limit the anamorphic mumps effect while maintaining the 1.5× squeeze. Its neutral flare design can pick up the color of the actual light source instead of imposing a fixed blue streak. Place practical lamps, automotive highlights or controlled backlights deliberately to develop the desired flare. Results still depend on lighting angles, exposure and filtration.

Lightweight Titanium-Tone Cine Housing

Compact Aluminum Bodies for Handheld and Gimbal Rigs

All three Arcana lenses share an 80mm length from front to flange plane and a titanium-tone finish on an aluminum-alloy body. Individual lens weights are approximately 709g (32mm), 695g (45mm) and 709g (75mm). The matched dimensions help reduce rig adjustments between focal lengths on supported handheld, gimbal, dolly and compact cinema-camera configurations. The stated weights exclude the hard case and additional accessories.

Matched Professional Lens Ergonomics

Consistent 80mm Fronts, M77 Filters and Cine Gears

Each prime uses an 80mm front outside diameter, an M77 (77mm) filter thread and M0.8 focus/iris gearing. These shared dimensions support compatible matte boxes, filtration and lens motors, helping assistants swap 32mm, 45mm and 75mm perspectives efficiently. Confirm lens-motor positioning and recalibrate focus marks or external autofocus accessories when changing lenses; accessories and adapters are not included unless separately listed.

Record footage using the camera’s supported anamorphic mode, then apply a 1.5× horizontal de-squeeze in the monitor, camera or post-production workflow as needed. Final framing depends on the original sensor aspect ratio, sensor crop and intended delivery format. Neutral flares respond to practical lighting; test flare angles, aperture and filtration before principal photography. When switching the three primes, verify back focus and sensor clearance, reset any motor endpoints and confirm focus accuracy. The lenses provide manual operation and do not add internal autofocus, lens stabilization or electronic communication.

The DZO-ARBUN3PLI is sold as a three-prime kit, not three separate selectable variants. B&H lists the three lenses and a protective hard case, together with accessory sets for the individual primes. Confirm the small-part quantities in Coremicro’s shipment before publication or fulfillment.
