High-Resolution 25mm Full-Frame Optical Design
The Arles 25mm incorporates 14 optical elements arranged in 12 groups to balance fine image detail with distinctive cinematic rendering. Its wide-angle perspective captures expansive environments while preserving natural color and delicate tonal transitions. Designed for full-frame digital cinematography, the lens offers expressive composition options for narrative films, commercial productions, and environmental storytelling.
Floating Optics for Controlled Wide-Angle Focus Pulls
Internal floating lens elements help maintain optical performance as focus moves from infinity toward close-up distances. The design minimizes visible breathing during focus changes, reducing distracting shifts in composition. With a minimum focusing distance of 0.35m from the camera sensor plane, the 25mm prime provides flexibility for foreground detail, environmental portraits, and dynamic rack-focus scenes.
Multi-Layer Nano-Coating for Natural Cinema Color
Specialized multi-layer nano-coating and internal anti-reflective treatments reduce unwanted stray light, ghosting, and diffuse reflections. The Arles series uses carefully calibrated optical coatings to maintain natural color while allowing expressive highlight rendering. This gives cinematographers greater control when working with practical lighting, bright windows, backlit subjects, and high-contrast outdoor environments.
46.5mm VistaVision Coverage with ARRI PL Mount
The 46.5mm image circle provides coverage for full-frame and compatible VistaVision cinema sensor formats. This version includes an ARRI PL mount, while the interchangeable-mount design allows additional configurations with appropriate conversion hardware. The compact rear construction also supports flexible integration into compatible professional camera systems. Always verify mount clearance and recording-mode coverage before installation.
270-Degree Focus Throw and 0.8 MOD Gearing
The aluminum-alloy housing incorporates a 270° focus rotation and a 77° iris rotation for controlled manual adjustments. Standard 0.8 MOD gearing works with compatible follow-focus systems and lens motors, while the 95mm front diameter accommodates professional matte-box setups. Consistent mechanical characteristics across the Arles prime family help simplify lens changes during multi-lens productions.
Consistent Arles Optical Character Across Focal Lengths
The 25mm belongs to the Arles prime family, designed to retain a recognizable visual character across different focal lengths. Matched color reproduction, contrast, and bokeh help preserve continuity when switching between wide, normal, and telephoto compositions. Consistent cine-style mechanics also make the series practical for narrative productions, commercials, and professional lens packages.
T1.4 Wide-Angle Low-Light Performance
The fast T1.4 maximum aperture offers exposure flexibility in available-light environments. It supports nighttime exteriors, interior dialogue scenes, and shallow depth-of-field compositions without requiring a longer focal length.
16-Blade Painterly Cinema Bokeh
A 16-blade iris creates rounded out-of-focus highlights and smooth transitions between foreground subjects and background elements. The optical character combines gentle highlight rendering with atmospheric depth.
25mm Wide-Angle Perspective
The wide field of view captures more environmental context, making the lens suitable for establishing shots, architecture, interiors, environmental portraits, and dynamic camera movement.
95mm Front Diameter and M86 Thread
A 95mm front diameter and 86mm filter thread support compatible cinema accessories. The shared mechanical design across the Arles family simplifies matte-box and follow-focus configurations.
Wide-Angle Narrative and Establishing Shots
The 25mm perspective captures subjects within expansive environments while maintaining cinematic background separation at wider apertures. It is useful for establishing shots, moving-camera sequences, and location-based storytelling.
Interior and Lifestyle Cinematography
Capture interior spaces, architectural environments, and lifestyle scenes with a wide field of view. The lens combines natural color rendering with standard professional focus gearing for controlled commercial production.
