ARRI Signature Prime Lens 12mm / T1.8 Meter Scale

Cinematic Excellence in Large Format

The ARRI Signature Prime 12mm T1.8 represents the pinnacle of wide-angle large-format cinematography. Designed to accompany the ALEXA LF and ALEXA Mini LF, this lens delivers organic, emotionally engaging images that soften the digital edge. By texturizing the frame with natural skin tones and a smooth focus fall-off, it gives subjects a heightened presence while maintaining state-of-the-art optical precision.

Constructed with a machined magnesium lens barrel, the Signature Prime series is remarkably lightweight and robust. This 12mm prime incorporates the LDS-2 Lens Data System, featuring high data rates and absolute encoders for rapid initialization and precise metadata capture, extending the possibilities of lens data for modern workflows.

The LPL Mount Standard

Equipped with the LPL (Large Positive Locking) mount, these lenses are optimized for modern sensor designs. The wider diameter and shorter flange focal depth allow for a fast T1.8 stop and pleasing bokeh that traditional PL mounts cannot achieve. The LPL mount is compatible with a wide range of cameras, including:

• ALEXA 65, ALEXA LF, and ALEXA Mini LF
• ALEXA Classic, XT, and SXT
• ALEXA Mini and AMIRA

With open LPL specifications, these lenses can be used universally across various third-party cameras and director's viewfinders, ensuring a future-proof investment for professional filmmakers.
