DZOFILM Arles Lustre 25mm(PL_1pcs_Imperial)
Reviving Vintage Glow for Modern Narratives
The Arles Lustre is a characteristic high-speed prime lens series and a brand new exploration of cinematic artistry by DZOFILM. Lustre, meaning soft glow, draws inspiration from the iconic golden halation in cinema history. To craft this large-format lens collection designed for stylistic expression, DZOFILM collaborated with over 20 cinematographers and photographers specializing in art films, period dramas, and fashion advertising. Based on the delicate design of Arles Prime, after more than 50 rounds of precise adjustments and refinements, DZOFILM achieved the distinctive Lustre Look.
Nostalgic Glow for Poetic Imagery
The Lustre series features a unique coating formula that delivers expressive amber flaring, with a soft, poetic glow that infuses every frame with a sense of nostalgia and emotion. Ideal for indie films, period dramas, experimental films, and fashion commercials, Lustre creates a vintage aesthetic and emotionally resonant imagery. Its stylistic flares and soft contrast evoke a dreamy, evocative ambiance, enriching visuals with greater depth and texture.
Shaping Light, Enhancing Immersion
The T1.6 wide aperture design ensures ample light intake even in low-light environments, while the reconfigured optical structure offers enhanced control over flaring effects. The soft contrast reveals intricate shadow details and tonal gradations with precision. When paired with Vista Vision sensors and minimal breathing, the T1.6 wide aperture delivers a beautifully shallow depth of field and an immersive visual experience with enhanced spatial depth and dimensionality.
Aesthetic Harmony with Modernity
Arles Lustre embodies optical perfection, delivering edge-to-edge sharpness even at maximum aperture while meeting the demands of 12K high-resolution cinematography. The 14mm, 21mm, and 25mm lenses each feature dual aspherical elements that precisely correct spherical aberrations and coma, eliminate onion-ring bokeh artifacts, and minimize wide-angle distortion and astigmatism.
Amber Halation for Dreamy Visuals
The 16-blade aperture design of Lustre lenses creates soft and richly layered bokeh, paired with amber flares that add a romantic warmth or a dreamy feel. Each frame carries a unique vintage look and emotional depth. The mix of warm flaring and bluish-purple tones softens skin textures while balancing nostalgic warmth with modern coolness, allowing flexible and creative stylistic expression.
Vista Vision Format for Expansive Imagery
The Lustre series spans focal lengths from 14mm to 180mm and is fully compatible with Vista Vision sensors, effortlessly achieving IMAX-level depth of field and expansive perspectives. Its large-format compatibility, wide aperture, and precision optical design ensure smooth transitions and consistent imagery across the frame, suiting projects from independent films to large-scale productions.
Compact, Consistent, and Cinematic
The Lustre series is designed with industry-grade precision to ensure mechanical reliability and consistent operation. Lightweight design weighing between 1.4kg and 1.9kg, ideal for shoulder-mounted, handheld, or drone setups. Featuring a 95mm front diameter, the lenses are compatible with standard M86 filters.

Sand-Gold Finish for Timeless Elegance

The front features a matte finish that retains delicate texture while reducing reflections on set.
