Arri Signature Primes
A unique look for digital cinema
Designed from the ground up
ARRI Signature lenses play to the strengths of digital cinema. The immersive look is a combination of warmth and natural detail that is flattering to skin tones, silky-smooth bokeh that enhances depth in every format,
and best-in-class highlight and shadow retention. Full of life and character, Signature images are beautiful whatever the format, resolution, and deliverable requirements.
To create the Signatures, which are different from anything we have produced before, we listened to creative professionals and started from scratch. Partnering with an optical manufacturer renowned globally for excellence,
we developed entirely new glass with stunning optical characteristics. This allowed us to design the Signature look from the ground up, free from preconceptions.
The Signature lens family
Beauty, consistency, and quality
Introducing the ARRI Signature family of lenses: 16 primes, four zooms, and one extender, offering the same timeless look across a focal length range of 12 mm to 510 mm. The beauty and consistency of images produced by the Signatures
represents a first for the film industry – never before have cine primes and zooms been so closely matched in their design, construction, and quality.
Carefully crafted to deliver the best possible results in both large format and Super 35, each lens has an LPL mount, is built from the highest quality materials such as lightweight magnesium, and features a rear filter holder that allows customization of the Signature look.
