The Ultra Primes were developed through a collaboration between ARRI and Zeiss, with Zeiss undertaking manufacturing. The Ultra Primes feature one of the largest collection of focal lengths ever in a set, with Lemac having a thirteen lens set from 12mm through to 135mm. The Ultra Primes utilize floating elements to achieve exceptional close focus. This is a design principle in which lens group move in relation to each other during focusing, thereby correcting image area curvature. Another feature of the Ultra Primes is their T* anti-reflex coating, which allows them to colour match each other very accurately. The Ultra Primes also match perfectly with other ARRI and Zeiss lenses, including the ARRI/Zeiss Master Primes, the ARRI/Fujinon Alura Studio Zooms, the Zeiss CP.3’s and the Zeiss Compact Cinema Zooms. The Ultra Primes feature a large illumination circle, meaning that not only do they all look fantastic when shooting in Super35, but when shooting in large format such as ARRI Alexa LF 16:9 focal lengths 20mm and longer will cover.
