Description
Product Overview
The DZOFilm Arles Lustre 25mm T1.6 Cinema Prime Lens brings DZOFilm's character-driven Lustre rendering to Full Frame and VistaVision cinema production. Its fast T1.6 aperture combines with warm halation, soft highlight bloom, and a 16-blade iris for expressive vintage-inspired imagery. Professional cine mechanics and an interchangeable ARRI PL mount support narrative, commercial, music-video, and professional production workflows.
Warm Halation with Layered Cinema Bokeh
DZOFilm's Lustre optical design creates soft highlight bloom and warm halation that helps reduce an overly clinical digital appearance. A 16-blade iris complements the look with smooth, richly layered out-of-focus rendering.
Large-Sensor Coverage for Modern Cinema
A 46.5mm image circle supports Full Frame and VistaVision-class cinema sensors. The 25mm perspective provides expansive framing while preserving the distinctive Lustre optical character.
Standardized Controls for Production Rigs
A 95mm front diameter, cine-standard gearing, and consistent mechanical positioning support matte boxes, follow-focus systems, lens motors, and professional camera-rig workflows.

Reviving Vintage Glow for Modern Narratives
The Lustre optical design introduces soft highlight bloom and subtle warm halation to contemporary digital cinema capture. Instead of pursuing a completely neutral rendering, the lens gives bright sources and backlit scenes a more expressive, vintage-inspired presence.
Nostalgic Glow for Poetic Imagery
Warm flare behavior and gentle highlight bloom give backlit subjects a softer and more atmospheric presence. Bright sources can develop expressive glow rather than remaining clinically defined, supporting romantic and dreamlike visual storytelling.
Shaping Light, Enhancing Immersion
Practical lights, highlights, and controlled flare can become deliberate parts of the composition. Warm halation introduces atmosphere around bright areas while helping cinematographers use lighting itself as part of the visual language.
Aesthetic Harmony with Modernity
Warm flaring combines with cooler bluish-purple tonal characteristics to balance nostalgic warmth with a more contemporary visual feel. This mix gives cinematographers flexibility when shaping skin tones, highlights, and practical lighting.
VistaVision Format for Expansive Imagery
The 46.5mm image circle supports Full Frame and VistaVision-class capture, making the 25mm useful for environmental compositions, interiors, establishing shots, and moving-camera work while retaining the signature Lustre rendering.
Warm Amber Halation Around Highlights
The Arles Lustre optical design gives strong highlights and practical light sources a warm amber glow. Flare becomes part of the visual language rather than a purely neutral artifact, supporting romantic, atmospheric, and dreamlike imagery directly through lighting and lens choice.
