LUSTRE ADDED TO VINTAGE LENS LOOKS DZOFilm BY DAVID FOX
The Arles high-speed prime lenses from DZOFilm have a modern, clean look, but for fi lmmakers with a more characterful vision, there is now the Arles Lustre range, offering a soft glow with golden halation for a vintage look. The Lustre series uses a unique coating formula with amber fl aring with a soft glow that is said to be ideal for period drama. The soft contrast reveals shadow details and tonal gradations.
Golden oldie: Arles Lustre prime lenses offer a dreamy feel
Most of the lenses have a T1.6 wide aperture for low light use, while their reconfi gured optical structure offers enhanced
control over fl aring. A 16-blade iris should create soft, layered bokeh, with amber fl ares for a dreamy feel.
The 14mm, 21mm and 25mm lenses use dual aspherical elements to precisely correct spherical aberrations, eliminate onion-ring bokeh artefacts and minimise wide-angle distortion. The lenses have a 46.5mm image circle, suitable for Vista Vision, and comes in 14mm (T2.2), 21, 25, 35, 40, 50, 75 and 100mm (all T1.6), as well as 135mm (T2.2) and 180mm (T2.8) focal lengths. The lenses weigh between 1.4kg and 1.9kg, have a 95mm front diameter and are compatible with standard M86 fi lters. 12.D62
