ARRI SIGNATURE PRIME

SIGNATURE PRIME RENTAL

Rent Signature Prime

Arri Signature Prime Lenses Rental. The ARRI Signature Prime lenses have 16 lenses with a wide focal range of 12mm to 280mm, with a diaphragm aperture from 1.8 to 2.8. These lenses achieve some characteristic colors of ARRI stands out for its warm and smooth skin colors, they stand out for separating the objects with an ARRI facet bokec. With delicate and blurred flares; and incorporate magnetic support for rear filters.

The ARRI Signature prime lenses stand out for an image with slim and detailed details. Eleven blades of iris produce soft and rounded bokeh effects and a design that minimizes breathing, achieving a more precise focus allowing follow-ups to be simpler. In addition to a minimum chromatic aberration for a perfect color key.

Signature Prime lenses are modern lenses, but give a vintage image style. Since high-resolution workflows have become the norm, cinematographers are trying to find ways to soften the image, either by using older lenses or by other means. Signature primes were developed with the future in mind, where emerging technologies such as 4K DCI, 8K and HDR are key to the design. Now, this is not to say that the lenses are overly sharp. They are not. They produce a natural-looking image and a smooth texture that is inherently unique.

Even though the resolution also depends on the camera sensor, ARRI has somehow retained the full resolution of the lens without the strong micro contrast that we usually see in high-resolution lenses.

There is a strong separation between the in-focus and out-of-focus portions of the image, where objects in focus appear naturally sharp rather than artificially sharp. It is very pleasing to the eye and consistent at all focal lengths. Skin tones are where the lenses shine. They manage to capture the full resolution without adding contrast. Signature Primes are not neutral, they add a touch of warmth to skin tones, but on the low side.

Signature Prime magnetic and removable rear filter holder

The lenses incorporate as a novelty a rear filter holder where you can use any material to make a filter, from aluminum foil and silk to stockings, wrapping paper and vintage fabrics, each of which affects the bokeh, flares and diffusion on different ways. The filter holder is magnetic, thus allowing quick and easy changes, without tools.

One of the most cinematic uses of this arri signature prime lens option with the rear filter holder accessory is to attach a diopter, as you will achieve a futuristic retro atmosphere. This option creates soft flair, stretches the edges, distorts the bokeh. It produces a stronger effect on more angular lenses.

This new accessory was definitely created with the vintage texture of old films in mind. By placing media on the back of the lens you get a retro effect that softens, blurs and distorts images in a creative way. In the Netflix series ''The Curse of Bly Manor'' the cinematographers used this technique inspired by old Hollywood movies. We can notice that the stocking is more or less tense depending on the shot. We see in the following image how on the left we have the stocking more tense than on the right.

Arri Signature Prime Mount

It is built with magnesium housings and aluminum gear rings, each Signature Prime lens is lightweight, water resistant and has focus marks on feet. Anti-reflective coatings, light baffles and light traps help minimize any internal flash of the barrel.

The lenses are equipped with a LPL mount. LPL mounts are designed to cover large format image sensors up to 46mm. If we want to use them with cameras with PL mount, we need an LPL to PL adapter.

ARRI Signature prime lenses are the first to incorporate the new lds-2 technology that allows us a faster process of the information transmitted from the optics to the camera. This way, the camera starts faster and expands the options of lens data transmission.
