ARRI / Zeiss Master Prime S35 Lens Rental

MPR Says:

For decades, the ARRI/Zeiss Ultra Primes have been the undisputed workhorses of the motion picture industry, celebrated for achieving the perfect balance between modern optical performance and classic cinematic character. These lenses have defined the look of countless feature films, television series, and commercials, prized for their compact size, light weight, and famously fast T1.9 aperture. Their ability to produce sharp, high-contrast images while retaining a pleasing, organic feel makes them a go-to choice for cinematographers who want a pristine look that isn’t sterile.

The versatility of this lens family is unmatched. With a comprehensive range available for rent—from the ultra-wide, distortion-free 8mm (8R) rectilinear and the fast 12mm T2.0, through a full set of T1.9 primes up to a tight 135mm—this set provides a creative solution for nearly any shot imaginable. On a fast-paced commercial shoot in Miami, their small footprint is a lifesaver for handheld and gimbal work. For a narrative film in Tampa that needs a touch of classic elegance, their beautiful character adds a rich, cinematic quality that elevates the storytelling, making them one of the most reliable and artistically satisfying lens sets available.

What Sets This Lens Apart?

The ARRI/Zeiss Ultra Primes are legendary for their Perfect Balance of Performance and Practicality. They are defined by their famously Compact and Lightweight design, a fast T1.9 Aperture across the core set, and a beautiful, organic Cinematic Character that delivers a sharp yet pleasing image. This combination has made them the proven workhorse for nearly every type of production.
