DZOFILM Arcana 45mm T2.1: Hybrid Anamorphic Excellence

The DZOFILM Arcana 45mm T2.1 redefines cinematic possibilities by blending classic anamorphic character with modern portability. This full-frame 1.5X squeeze prime lens delivers the aesthetic soul of vintage 2X glass in a compact, 695g housing designed for high-speed production.

Signature 2X Waterfall Bokeh

Equipped with a 14-blade dynamic elliptical iris, the Arcana 45mm recreates the iconic oval "waterfall" bokeh typically exclusive to 2X anamorphic lenses. The fast T2.1 aperture ensures consistent performance across the series, providing deep cinematic separation and stunning visual dimension.

Advanced Front-Cylindrical Optics

The specialized front-cylindrical element group generates dynamic horizontal streak flares with organic color shifts. An environmentally tinted white coating produces unique, non-continuous flare lines that react naturally to light sources. This design maintains a stable squeeze ratio throughout the focus range, eliminating the "mumps" distortion found in rear-anamorphic alternatives.

12K+ Resolution and Optical Precision

Featuring three Extra-low Dispersion (ED) elements, the Arcana 45mm resolves detail beyond 12K sensor requirements. Chromatic aberration is suppressed significantly below industry standards, ensuring clean edges and accurate color reproduction even when shooting wide open.

Optimized for Solo Operators

Weighing only 695g with a unified 80mm front diameter and 270 degree focus throw, this lens is built for gimbals like the DJI Ronin 4D. The aluminum-alloy housing with a titanium-tone finish is rated for extreme temperatures from -30C to 70C. A close focus distance of 0.58m offers exceptional flexibility for tight interior shots and interviews.

Versatile PL Mount System

The Arcana features a multi-position PL mount that supports vertical shooting. Its short rear optical group allows for seamless integration with VND filters, PL-to-E/L/RF adapters, and autofocus rings, making it compatible with all professional cinema and mirrorless systems.
