Description — ARRI 14mm Master Prime
The ARRI 14mm Master Prime is a PL Mount, Full Frame cinema prime lens engineered for professional production environments. Fixed at 14mm, it occupies a definitive wide-angle position in the focal length spectrum, making it a go-to choice for sweeping wide shots, immersive environmental storytelling, and shooting in tight physical spaces. Its T1.3 maximum aperture is a standout characteristic at this focal length, enabling cinematographers to capture images in challenging lighting conditions while maintaining meaningful creative control over depth of field.
As a manual focus lens with no autofocus capability, it is built for the structured focus-pulling workflows of narrative and commercial film production. The lens weighs 3,200g, reflecting its robust, cinema-grade construction. There is no image stabilization, consistent with the expectations of professional cinema lenses where stabilization is addressed at the rig or camera level.
The PL Mount interface ensures compatibility with the professional cinema camera ecosystem.
