Product Overview
The DZOFilm Arles Lustre 75mm 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. The 75mm focal length adds stronger subject isolation for portraits, dialogue close-ups, beauty work, and selective framing while professional cine mechanics support production-ready camera builds.
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 with Strong Subject Separation
A 46.5mm image circle supports Full Frame and VistaVision-class cinema sensors. The 75mm focal length provides a tighter field of view for portraits, dialogue close-ups, beauty shots, and subject-focused compositions while retaining 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. At 75mm, the tighter perspective emphasizes subjects, compresses visual space, and supports portrait-oriented framing, dialogue close-ups, beauty work, and selective compositions while retaining the signature Lustre rendering.
Warm Amber Halation with Layered Bokeh
The Arles Lustre 75mm combines a 16-blade iris with the series' characteristic amber flare and soft highlight bloom. Its longer focal length and fast T1.6 aperture support strong subject isolation while maintaining smooth, richly layered out-of-focus areas. Practical lights and backlight can take on a warmer, more romantic character directly through the optics.
Soft and Richly Layered Cinema Bokeh
The 16-blade iris helps maintain rounded and layered out-of-focus highlights across the Lustre family. On the 75mm T1.6, the longer focal length adds stronger background separation for portraits, dialogue close-ups, beauty shots, and selective compositions where attention needs to remain firmly on the subject.
Warm Flares Balanced by Cooler Tones
Lustre rendering combines warm flare behavior with cooler bluish-purple tonal characteristics. The warmer highlights reinforce the vintage-inspired side of the image while cooler color response provides contrast, giving cinematographers room to blend classic optical personality with contemporary digital capture.
Optical Character as Part of the Story
Warm flaring, softer highlight response, layered bokeh, and cooler tonal accents give Lustre imagery a recognizable visual personality. These characteristics can be shaped through lighting and framing, allowing the lens itself to contribute to the final visual language instead of relying entirely on post-production.

75mm Character Prime for Close Narrative Coverage
The 75mm focal length moves naturally into portraits, dialogue close-ups, reaction shots, and selective narrative framing. Its tighter field of view and T1.6 aperture help separate actors from surrounding detail while retaining the recognizable Lustre highlight and flare character.

A 95mm front, M86 filter thread, 0.8 MOD gearing, 270-degree focus rotation, and approximately 1.66kg weight support matte boxes, follow-focus units, lens motors, shoulder rigs, sliders, and appropriately balanced camera-support systems.
