Ultra 16 Lenses Match Perfectly

Like all other modern ARRI lenses, the Ultra 16 lenses have been Super Color Matched. Their optical characteristics and color balance are not only optimized for a pleasing color balance on modern film stocks, but they are also precisely matched to each other and the other ARRI lenses. The Ultra 16 lenses can be easily intercut with Master Primes, Ultra Primes, Variable Primes and the Lightweight Zoom LWZ-1, so the cinematographer is able to concentrate on creating a look rather than matching lenses in post.

Lens Ergonomics

All Ultra 16 lenses are of the same size, and have matching focus and iris barrel positions for fast and comfortable usage on the set. All nine also have the same 95 mm front diameter as the Ultra Primes.

The high contrast and resolution of the Ultra 16 lenses, in combination with modern film stocks, make even wide shots look great in Super 16.
