Launched in <strong>1998<\/strong> as the result of a collaboration between <strong>ARRI<\/strong> and <strong>Zeiss<\/strong>, they sit today somewhere between classic and contemporary lenses: modern enough to perform alongside any digital cinema camera, yet characterful enough to bring that cinematic quality that sets them apart from the more neutral optics on the market. They are sharp, defined, and contrasty \u2014 as one would expect from any lens featuring Zeiss glass \u2014, but with an organicity and three-dimensionality in image rendering that makes them extraordinarily cinematic. Shot on <em>The Fellowship of the Ring<\/em> (Peter Jackson, 2001), <em>Exodus: Gods and Kings<\/em> (Ridley Scott, 2014), and <em>The Irishman<\/em> (Martin Scorsese, 2019).<\/p>\n<p>Their design uses <strong>floating elements<\/strong> to correct aberrations and field curvature within a single housing, preventing barrel displacement during focusing and virtually eliminating focus breathing when pulling focus. With a uniform <strong>95mm front diameter<\/strong> across the vast majority of focal lengths \u2014 with the exception of the most extreme wides and the 180mm \u2014, they are compact, lightweight, and mechanically extraordinarily robust: miscollimation or misalignment are concepts these lenses are virtually immune to.
