Lens OverviewARRI 14mm T1.9

The ARRI Ultra Prime 14mm is a manual-focus prime cinema lens designed for Super 35 format camera systems. Mounted on the industry-standard PL Mount, this wide-angle lens opens to a maximum aperture of T1.9, making it a capable choice for cinematographers working in challenging lighting environments or seeking shallow depth of field at the wide end of the focal range. As a fixed focal length prime, it delivers the optical consistency and rendering quality that professional cinema productions demand.

The lens is classified as a wide-angle optic, sitting at 14mm — a focal length well-suited to establishing shots, environmental storytelling, and immersive perspectives. It is fully manual in operation, with no autofocus system, which is standard practice in professional cinema workflows where focus pullers work with precision follow-focus rigs. Weighing in at 1,700g, the lens has the substantial build expected of a professional cinema optic.

Its Super 35 format coverage aligns it with the majority of digital cinema cameras in professional use today. Imperial measurement markings on the focus scale are specified, catering to crews accustomed to working in feet and inches.
