Lens Overview — ARRI 14mm Master Prime

The ARRI 14mm Master Prime is a wide-angle prime lens built for the demands of professional cinema production. Operating on a PL Mount, it is designed for the Cinema / Video camera system and covers a Full Frame image circle. The lens is a true prime, fixed at 14mm, placing it firmly in wide-angle territory — well suited for expansive establishing shots, dramatic environmental storytelling, and confined shooting spaces where wide coverage is essential.

With a maximum aperture of T1.3, it delivers exceptional light-gathering capability, allowing cinematographers to work in lower-light conditions and exercise meaningful control over depth of field at the wide end. Focus is entirely manual, as is standard for high-end cinema prime lenses, giving focus pullers precise, repeatable control during complex shots. The lens weighs 3,200g, which is characteristic of a robust, cinema-grade optical instrument built for professional rigging on studio and field setups.

No image stabilization is present, consistent with cinema workflows where stabilization is typically handled at the camera or rig level. The PL Mount ensures broad compatibility across the professional cinema camera ecosystem.
