With an image circle of 46 mm, these Lenses offer full-frame coverage, maintaining edge-to-edge sharpness without vignetting. The T1.4 Aperture not only improves exposure flexibility, but also produces smooth, natural blurred highlights, providing an immersive and dimensional visual experience. Whether you are shooting a dramatic close-up or an expansive wide-angle shot, the Aureus Prime series ensures that every frame is rendered with stunning clarity and precision.

The optical design of the Aureus Prime lenses is carefully crafted to minimise chromatic aberration and distortion, providing extremely low dispersion that maintains lifelike colours and sharp details. Advanced coatings reduce ghosting and flare, while maintaining high contrast and deep, rich blacks. Even at full open aperture (T1.4), these Lenses show minimal optical imperfections, allowing filmmakers to achieve a clear and professional image in any lighting situation.

One of the standout features of the Aureus Prime series is the virtually no focus breathing, which ensures smooth focus transitions without unwanted shifts in the composition. The Lenses maintain exceptional resolution across the entire aperture range, from T1.4 to T22, keeping fine details sharp from centre to edge. The combination of high resolution, minimal breathing and superior contrast control makes these Lenses a powerful tool for professional filmmakers seeking both precision and artistic expression.

With a focus rotation of 300° the Lenses offer smooth and precise focus pulls, providing exceptional control for filmmakers demanding accuracy in critical focus adjustments. The Lenses also retain a manual aperture structure with 11 aperture blades, ensuring beautifully smooth bokeh and natural blurred transitions.

The Colour rendering of the Aureus Prime lenses is neutral and accurate, making them an ideal choice for productions requiring seamless colour matching across multiple shots. Enhanced microcontrast capabilities provide more depth in shadows and more natural tonal transitions, giving images a cinematic quality that stands out in both digital and cinematic workflows.

The Aureus Prime series features a flange distance at infinity ranging from 16.1 mm to 19.8 mm across the five focal lengths, ensuring broad compatibility with all cameras with PL mounts and a wide range of PL adapters. This design allows seamless integration with cinema systems, mirrorless setups and professional video systems, including adapters with built-in drop-in filter options, giving filmmakers even more creative control.
