Lens Overview — DZOFilm 35mm T1.4 FF/VV

The DZOFilm Arles 35mm T1.4 is a full-frame prime cinema lens built for professional cinematography work. Covering a Full Frame and Vista Vision image circle, it delivers a standard 35mm focal length — a versatile choice that suits everything from intimate dialogue scenes to wide environmental shots. The fast T1.4 maximum aperture gives cinematographers genuine low-light capability and significant control over depth of field, all measured in the T-stop system that accounts for actual light transmission rather than theoretical f-stop values.

Designed exclusively for manual focus operation, the Arles 35mm prioritizes the deliberate, tactile focus control that cinema productions demand. Weighing in at 1200g, it has the substantial build expected of a professional cine prime. Mount flexibility is a practical strength — the lens is available in PL Mount, Canon EF, and Sony E configurations, making it compatible with a broad range of cinema and mirrorless camera bodies.

There is no image stabilization, which is standard for a cinema prime intended for use on rigged, supported camera systems. For cinematographers seeking a reliable, fast standard prime across full-frame and VV formats, the Arles 35mm T1.4 is a straightforward, capable option.

Mount options include PL Mount, Canon EF, and Sony E, giving productions the flexibility to deploy this lens across a variety of camera platforms.
