DZOFILM Arles Lustre - 75mm (Metric)

The Arles Lustre is a characteristic high-speed prime lens series and a brand new exploration of cinematic artistry by DZOFILM. "Lustre," meaning "soft glow," draws inspiration from the iconic golden halation in cinema history.

To craft this large-format lens collection designed for stylistic expression, we collaborated with over 20 cinematographers and photographers specializing in art films, period dramas, and fashion advertising. Based on the sophisticated delicate design of Arles prime, after more than 50 rounds of precise adjustments and refinements, from optical engineering to aesthetic design, we achieved the distinctive "Lustre Look".

Nostalgic Glow for Poetic Imagery
The Lustre series features a unique coating formula that delivers expressive amber flaring, with a soft, poetic glow that infuses every frame with a sense of nostalgia and emotion.
Ideal for indie films, period dramas, experimental films, and fashion commercials, Lustre creates a vintage aesthetic and emotionally resonant imagery. Its stylistic flares and soft contrast evoke a dreamy, evocative ambiance, enriching visuals with greater depth and texture.

Shaping Light, Enhancing Immersion
The T1.6 wide aperture design ensures ample light intake even in low-light environments, while the reconfigured optical structure offers enhanced control over flaring effects. The soft contrast reveals intricate shadow details and tonal gradations with precision. When paired with Vista Vision sensors and minimal breathing, the T1.6 wide aperture not only delivers a beautifully shallow depth of field but also creates an immersive visual experience with enhanced spatial depth and dimensionality. Whether shooting in challenging lighting conditions or at high frame rates, Lustre excels in rendering precise light and shadow contrasts. Its natural, flowing light and the grandeur of large-format imagery infuse each frame with poetic expression and striking visual impact.

Aesthetic Harmony with Modernity
Arles Lustre embodies optical perfection, delivering edge-to-edge sharpness even at maximum aperture while meeting the demands of 12K high-resolution cinematography. The 14mm, 21mm, and 25mm lenses each feature dual aspherical elements that precisely correct spherical aberrations and coma, eliminate onion-ring bokeh artifacts, and minimize wide-angle distortion and astigmatism. This exceptional optical performance liberates filmmakers' creative vision, providing unparalleled aesthetic flexibility.

Amber Halation for Dreamy Visuals
The 16-blade aperture design of Lustre lenses creates soft and richly layered bokeh, paired with amber flares that add a romantic warmth or a dreamy feel.

Vista Vision Format for Expansive Imagery
The Lustre series spans focal lengths from 14mm to 180mm and is fully compatible with Vista Vision sensors, effortlessly achieving IMAX-level depth of field and expansive perspectives. Whether creating high-end visuals in industrial-grade productions or crafting immersive spatial experiences in narrative films, Lustre excels in delivering outstanding results. Its large-format compatibility, wide aperture, and precision optical design ensure smooth transitions and consistent imagery across the frame. This unified visual style suits a wide range of projects, from independent films to large-scale productions, empowering filmmakers with more creative potential.
